D W @RT34520430 12/16/2022 Cute, good location photography, some sweet characters, requires an ability to deal with dated content.

Good cinematography, editing, acting, set decorations, costumes (va-voom), but yet this film will make those with traditional moralities feel uncomfortable - in spite of the Hollywood ending. See more 03/25/2018 Though stereotypical, this interracial romantic melodrama was one of William Holden's most popular films, See more 11/01/2017 I haven't seen every movie, so I can't confirm that this is the most racist and sexist film ever made, only the most sexist and racist film I've ever seen. It tells the tale of a middle-aged white American who, unfulfilled in his normal life, moves to Hong Kong to become an artist. He strikes up a romance with a willful and child-like Chinese prostitute who is half his age. They fall madly in love, despite him doing things like -I shit you not- ripping her clothes off and throwing over a balcony. He's moody and controlling and has a face like a catcher's mitt, but that's okay, because she is a sexy Asian woman-child who acts like a thirteen year old and just needs a man to take care of her. Anything that you could imagine being a problematic representation of sex workers, white people in East Asia, intergenerational relationships, the infantilization of Asians, women, and especially Asian women, this movie has it all.
