“They found a love they dared not touch!”

Megan Davis (Barbara Stanwyck) is an American missionary in 1920s Shanghai, about to marry a fellow missionary when a civil war breaks out around her. General Yen (Nils Asther), a warlord with a ruthless reputation, pulls her out of the chaos and takes her to his palace. Frank Capra films the quiet between them, and the danger, in slow shadowed rooms.
