Quiz
The American Film Institute Catalog of Feature Films 1931-1940 states that this was Hedy Lamarr's last film under her MGM contract; it was her first. AFI also adds that Mary Taylor was signed to a long-term MGM contract as a result of her work in this picture; in fact, she would be seen in only four feature films in her entire career, and only one more of them, Fiori nella polvere (1941) would be made at MGM.

Citazioni
Bill Carey: Father... Father, help us.
Father Antoine: My son, she goes where there is no east or west. And she will be judged by one who alone knows how great or how little were her sins.

Fantastic Classic Gem

Hedy Lamarr, (Manon DeVargnes Carey) was so beautiful in this film and her acting was outstanding along with Robert Taylor, (William Carey). Bill Carey played the role as a playboy with plenty of money and sails to Saigon and meets Manon in a bar and the two of them fall in love with each other once they look into each other eyes. Bill does not know very much about Manon or the fact that she has a lover named Pierre Delaroch, (Joseph Schildkraut) who lives a very shady life and is up to all kinds of tricks. Pierre becomes jealous once he finds out about Manon falling in love with Bill Carey and makes contact with his friends in the government of Saigon in order not to grant her any visas to the United States or Paris, France. Manon is a lady who tells many lies and is really a very sly and tricky lady when it comes to men or anyone. There is plenty of romance in this film and extremely dramatic situations which face these two lovers. If Hedy Lamarr did not star in this film, I am sure Betty Davis would have done a great job, but never as beautiful. Enjoy.
