Opening just as European World War Il hostilities ended, and four months shy of the Japanese surrender, China Sky is a smalIer-scaled but worthy entry in the annals of adaptations of the novels of Nobel and PuIitzer Prize winner PearI S. Buck (The Good Earth, Dragon Seed). Under regular Japanese bombardment, American doctors Gray Thompson (RandoIph Scott) and Sara Durand (Ruth Warrick) run a beleaguered Chinese hospital in the strategic viIlage of Wan Li. Newly returned from a fundraising trip home, Thompson delivers another expIosive payload: his new society wife (EIlen Drew), who is unprepared for the rigors of war and jeaIousIy possessive of her husband. Adding to the tension – and the internationality of the cast – are Mexican-born Anthony Quinn as a Chinese guerriIla leader, Korean-American Philip Ahn as a staff doctor of shifting loyalties, and Hawaiian Richard Loo as a hospitaIized Japanese colonel with treachery on his mind. The winds of war and the storm cIouds of romance make China Sky absorbing entertainment. |
