PUNQ

Rated 06 Apr 2013

George Raft's turn to be Asian! A half-Chinese underworld criminal who falls for a white girl, also a criminal. But she falls for a white guy.... you know this can't turn good. At least if one is Asian in Hollywood. Stereotypical and boring story which never got very emotional. A typical run of the mill production with a ethnic theme, but at least they used some Asians including Anna May Wong getting typecast as a dragon lady in one of the bit parts.
