Task: Question Generation
Input (English): Joji, a boxer in a world of feather and welter weights intimidates the underworld with his presence. He actually disarms a thug by asking for the gangster's gun. The gun is handed over to Joji who delivers a punch to the gun owner. Fight scenes are enacted with minimal if any music but hyper-real sound effects are used at times. It seems as if the fighters are performing on sand covered wooden floors. Very amateur fight moves compared to today's imports which gives it a nice innocent charm.Poetically shot scenes of reverie by an ocean embankment ( great diagonal shots) or in an empty restaurant lends a European feel to the movie, very French.The singer, Saeko, is revealed to have been an opera singer with an impeccable french accent who lost her talent due to illness.The spoiler revolves around Joji's brother.....Nice twist.
Output (English): Question: What style of cinema influenced the movie?, Answer: French
