Are Americans vulgar?

Indeed, the United States is a blessed land for movies. As long as you give him enough money, you can make a decent movie sooner or later. You can be a famous person who can make money even if you are not a master. It is such a place that there is hardly one good movie a year. Especially in recent years, a lot of garbage has flooded the major theaters, just like the current Chinese costume blockbuster and New Year's film market... Are Americans? vulgar? Can't really tell. It can be said that Americans have developed movies, but also destroyed movies (or at least destroyed the image of movies in the minds of most people). In the early days, the American contribution to the film industry was indeed outstanding, but now it has reached a low ebb. On the contrary, the European film industry has been developing steadily. Perhaps this is the power of "harmony", the harmony of European films. In its diversity, this is undeniable. . .
Last night, I watched Martin's American version of Infernal Affairs. At first, I didn't hold out much hope and was absent-minded. After five minutes passed, I suddenly found that he had done all the things that were explained in the Hong Kong version in almost an hour. For fear of not being able to keep up, I quickly opened my eyes... As for actors, I can only say that if you look all over Hollywood, it is impossible for someone to replace Tony Leung and Andy Lau. It is not my personal adoration. The fact is that the implicit beauty of Chinese people is not "little white face". It's analog, but I still like Leonardo's performance, this kid is really getting more and more promising, I admit. The Hong Kong version of the underworld is exactly like the one in "The Godfather", it's cold and threatening, and the Boston underworld looks like a bunch of gangsters no matter how you look at it, whether Nicholson, even if it's Brando's replacement People have no "good feelings". Perhaps because of these, "Infernal Affairs" seriously lacks the subtlety and depth that we should have in our eyes.
But aside from the original version and watching this movie alone, there are still many advantages. Among them, I had to cry, they are so rich, when I saw the scene of DAMON going up the stairs (the elevator was actually used), I still sighed that money can create everything... Those who criticize Chinese movies for being slow, inactive, and inactive Special effects people, think about it when you go home, we are in the third world, and it is already very good to have art works, what else can we expect? ! ...
Among them, the most praised is the paragraph of LEONARDO tracking DAMON, a typical Martin paragraph; there is also the paragraph of the old man falling from the upstairs, which is quite sensational, but not contrived. The ending is a bit different from the Hong Kong version, but it's okay. Maybe the ending was a little too fast-paced. Hehe, it seems that I am still influenced by the Hong Kong version...
Now back to the topic, are Americans really vulgar? I remember watching "Million Dollar Baby" a few years ago. I didn't think it was good at first, but later I realized its "heavy feeling". The film is different, it is a kind of pure spiritual expression, and does not rely on film language to express. Although this method is very boring, it can even be said to be a layman, but no one can deny that it is good to have such a spirit... In the part where LEONARDO secretly met with two bosses, there is a line that I will never forget: " Most of the people in the world are pretending, it's no big deal." It was a bleak episode, especially since I already knew what the end of "fake" was. Suddenly, there was a sublime breath, and I fell silent. . .
Are Americans vulgar? It's hard to judge a thing by its appearance, let alone a culture. To tell the truth, I really admire this movie, really. .
