Shanghai Express

Our second Film Noir Friday offering is a classic noir featuring Marlene Dietrich, Anna May Wong, and Clive Brook. It is a pre-Code film about a group of train passengers held hostage by a warlord during the Chinese Civil War. With this film, we commemorate the career of Anna May Wong, the first Asian movie star in Hollywood and globally in a career spanning from 1919 until her passing in 1961. In 2022, she became the first Asian to appear on U.S. currency on the quarter coin.

 

With special guest Dale Pollock.
