Movie Rewatch: Shanghai Express (1932, Josef Von Sternberg)
Marlene always did look spiffy in men's attire
It's been a long time since I saw this one. The main attraction here was the exotic locale as Von Sternberg turns the Paramount backlot into China. The love story plot has it's moments. It's a standard misunderstanding between lovers type except here Marlene explains why she refuses to straighten Clive out: if he can't figure it out himself (or forgive her without figuring it out) then he's not worth having!
