The story

What Is Bad Boy About?

The premise of Bad Boy without spoilers.

Jimmy Jump strives to satisfy his conflicting parents—his father demanding toughness, his mother nurturing his sensitivity. Wanting to marry his girlfriend, he takes a job at his father’s iron foundry but fails. He then goes to a gritty dance hall to impress her, delivering a memorable parody of an Isadora Duncan routine.
