While Russian-American Tamiroff plays the lead Chinese villain, many of the supporting Asian roles appear to be played by Asian-Americans and there&#8217;s refreshing diversity in their portrayals. With that said, this is still primarily a film about White leads Cooper and Carroll, whose ill-fated love affair rings true &#8212; especially given the realistically oily performance by Hall as her worthless father. (Is he meant to be an opiate addict? That would make sense in this context, and would help to explain the desperation felt both by him and his enabling daughter.) Werner Janssen&#8217;s score at times feels intrusive, but is interesting enough to make one sit up and take notice. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> In looking over the Peary-listed films directed by Milestone &#8212; best known for the Oscar-winning <a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/?p=42881\"><em>All Quiet on the Western Front<\/em> (1930)<\/a> &#8212; it seems he helmed several other
