I can't believe I never commented on this originally, but here's the hilarious part (for me): Even though I've never seen this film, it's the first movie I ever wrote slash for. I ran across a description of it in a film studies text about gangster movies, and it sent me off on this crazy tear which produced notes for a never-finished three-way bi romance...I think I was 16 or so. I transplanted it to New Orleans, of course. Oh, and looking at your description of Feathers, my initial reaction was still: "Riiight, THAT was Jiang-su's real name!" (Because I made her Chinese, too...the way you do.;))
