Classic 1940s noir drama directed by Josef Von Sternberg.
Dragon-lady Gin Sling (Ona Munson) is being forced to leave her
Shanghai casino by rich capitalist Sir Guy Charteris (Walter
Huston). After having worked her way out of poverty to become a
successful business woman, Gin is desperate not to lose her casino.
Meanwhile Charteris's daughter Victoria (Gene Tierney) enters the
casino going by the name of Poppy Smith in the hopes of injecting
some excitement into her life. Realising Poppy's true identity, Gin
enlists the help of Dr Omar (Victor Mature) to encourage Poppy's
drinking and gambling, enticing her into addiction. When Gin
recognises that Charteris is actually her long-lost husband who
abandoned her years ago, she plans to exact revenge at her Chinese
New Year party. Charteris, however, has quite a surprise for her.
