Odd ball film about a foreign service agent dispatched to China to deal with the "present Crisis" (aka the Communist revolution). Actually the plot has to do with a Mongolian warlord causing trouble in Northern China. Its more a blind to keep the story topical rather than to do with the revolution. Well acted in a purely Hollywood sort of way. The plot twists are completely unbelievable and the sort of thing of thing that only happen in bad Hollywood movies. I'm guessing the involvement with the government helped to make everything so sweetly saccharine. Enjoyable in a bad movie sort of way, its worth a look if you want a melodrama with no connection to reality.
