I heard that it was a famous work by Jim Kelly, so I went to watch it but found that it really didn't suit me. The performance was too exaggerated and the characters I couldn't understand. Could this be the generation gap separated by time and space? Also, lady, can you be any uglier?

Please note that this is a movie from 70 years ago. All kinds of people who show superiority in the comment area can go away. You have to consider the age of the movie. You were not born 70 years ago, and you couldn’t watch it without TV in your home 70 years ago. When it comes to movies, you don't even dance to the beat. A bunch of overbearing CEOs with silicone faces in idol dramas have no aesthetics at all! 【Bilibili】

Jerry Mulligan: I came to Paris to study and to paint, because Utrillo did, and Lautrec did, and Roualt did. I loved what they created and I thought something would happen to me too. Well, it happened all right. Now, what have I got left? Paris. Maybe that's enough for some, but it isn't for me anymore, because the more beautiful everything is, the more it will hurt without you.

Milo Roberts: Why do you make such an issue of money?
Jerry Mulligan: Because I ain't got any. And when you ain't got any, it takes on a curious significance.
