Very average

This is a relatively ambiguous romance film, and the feelings between the hero and the heroine seem to be looming. The political background occupies a large proportion in the film. In addition to the main background of the Japanese invasion of China, the Jewish neighbors of the countess also showed the complex conflicts in Europe at that time in a few words. It seems that this movie was also very famous at the time when it was shot in Shanghai. I saw the introduction of this movie by chance, and I rented it because I was very interested in movies with Chinese background. I don't really like it very much, it's okay to just take a look.

Todd Jackson: She is the countess Sofia Alexeyevna Belinskaya. She has everything that I wanted for this place. She has the allure, the tragedy, the weariness. She knows that history has no place for her kind anymore. She is perfect. My centre piece.
