Don't know why it's so famous... the urban version of the stagecoach. Anna May Wong dangling like a ghost, Dietrich had a tone. But the story was lackluster and...

Looking at it now, I think it's a very idol drama, but it was probably not a modernism and Politics class that was badly filmed back...

There is something to complain about in the plot, and Cantonese with a Shunde accent is weird on the way from Beijing to Shanghai. But the lines are top-notch, and the actors' performance is top-notch. Look at Marlene Dietrich, how charming, her eyes are rippling, and every frown and smile makes people's heart skip a beat! (Yes, I watched this show with two beautiful...

Anna May Wong played an anonymous deus ex machina here, killing the revolutionary army Chang who prevented Harvey and Madeline from reuniting. If you want to cry for Chang, how could such a stupid warlord, for the sake of a woman, give up his readily available benefits and keep his promise to let the male lead go. The revolutionary army imagined by Hollywood is too...

There is no doubt that Sternberg's rhythm and production are flawless. No matter how you look at him, he looks like a technical director. The photography and editing are both extreme. It is a pity that the story tension of this film is really weak. Fortunately, there are two The peerless and elegant actress held up the audience, the viewing and beauty of the movie was undoubtedly very good, and a few supporting roles were also quite...

In fact, it is not a Chinese theme. It mainly talks about the love between two foreigners. The place is on the train from Beijing to Shanghai. Anna May Wong is mysterious, calm and...

ruthless bitch
The prostitute Shanghai Lily in the film does not hesitate to dedicate herself to a small warlord for her old lover. In reality, countless women dedicate themselves to many men for their men. Don't you mean bitches are ruthless?

looks beautiful
Marlene Dietrich under Steinberg's lens is the most beautiful. There is no lack of sexy and glamorous in classics. Even at the moment when love blooms, she is proud. This film seems to have become Dietrich's personal show, with different costumes and different accessories, taking turns in battle,...

Mrs. Haggerty: I've never been so shocked in my life. I suppose the Chinese girl deserves all she's getting, but as for the other lady... Well, I'm not going to say anything. Of all the brazen creatures, playing the gramophone. Why, she's the most terrible woman I've ever met. I don't see how she can look any of us in the eye. Going off with the late Mr. Chang after the way he treated us. Bad enough she tried it before he held up the train, but after the way he tortured poor Mr. Baum...
Reverend Mr. Carmichael: Look here, Mrs. Haggerty, I think you're doing the woman an injustice. I don't know what caused her to behave that way, but I'm sure there's a whole lot more behind this than appears on the surface.
Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: Mr. Carmichael, when I had the pleasure of making your acquaintance yesterday, you volunteered an amazingly correct diagnosis of Shanghai Lily, and I see no reason for you to have changed it.
Reverend Mr. Carmichael: Look here, Captain Harvey, I happen to know that she prayed all night for your safety.
Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: I'd give anything in the world to believe the way you do, but I heard from her own lips she was leaving with Chang.
Reverend Mr. Carmichael: That's rubbish!
Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: I wish it were.
Sam Salt: Defending that dame. I'm pretty liberal on the subject of betting, but I wouldn't back his viewpoint for all the rice in China.
Mrs. Haggerty: Neither would I.

Reverend Mr. Carmichael: I'd like to talk to you alone.
Shanghai Lily: I don't wish to talk to anybody.
Reverend Mr. Carmichael: I'm sorry to have to insist, but I must talk to you.
Shanghai Lily: If you're thinking of reforming me, you might as well save yourself the trouble.
Reverend Mr. Carmichael: I'm not trying to reform you. I'm not trying to reform anybody right now. All I want is to settle something that's been puzzling me all day. Why did you decide to leave with that barbarian who was killed by her this morning?
[Hui Fei and Carmichael exchange glances as she leaves the compartment]
Shanghai Lily: What makes you want to know? Curiosity?
Reverend Mr. Carmichael: You prayed last night, probably for the first time in years. This morning, you were to shamelessly leave with Chang. There's something wrong there. You can't tell me that a human being can do two things like that within six hours.
Shanghai Lily: Although it's nobody's affair but mine, I might tell you if you promise not to repeat it.
Reverend Mr. Carmichael: Of course I won't repeat it. I came in here to find out for myself. I'm not interested in the others.
Shanghai Lily: He was going to deprive Captain Harvey of his eyesight. I had no other choice.
Reverend Mr. Carmichael: Does Captain Harvey know that?
Shanghai Lily: Does he act as if he did?
Reverend Mr. Carmichael: He certainly does not. Despite the fact that I gave you my word not to tell anyone, I'm going to tell him this.
Shanghai Lily: You're not going to do anything of the kind. Mr. Carmichael, it may seem odd for me to use your language, but it's purely a question of faith. You see, once upon a time we loved each other. We parted, and I threw my life away because I didn't care to bargain for love with words. I haven't changed since them, and neither has he.
Reverend Mr. Carmichael: You're still in love with him, aren't you?
Shanghai Lily: Yes.
Reverend Mr. Carmichael: Is he still in love with you?
Shanghai Lily: I doubt it.
Reverend Mr. Carmichael: You're right. Love without faith, like religion without faith, doesn't amount to very much. I don't suppose I can help you.
Shanghai Lily: No.
