Singapore Woman

It's 1941 Singapore. Rubber plantation owner David Ritchie (David Bruce) and his western friends walk into a bar on the bad side of town. The gals want to experience some exotic thrills. David notices a familiar drunk gal in the corner. She is Vicki Moore (Brenda Marshall), a rich girl from Hong Kong. He recounts their last encounter which ended with her first of many tragedies. She has been brought low and considers herself jinxed. David is engaged to Claire Weston (Virginia Field).

I watched this movie and kept waiting for it to end with the Japanese invasion. I thought that would be her final jinx. It's almost to the end when I realized that the Japanese don't invade until 1942. It's a whole different movie if this has another year. I'm not sure if I am convinced of their chemistry. To be fair, he has no chemistry with Claire either.
