Please be sure to read the entire description before purchasing. Year: 1933 The exotic, erotic melodrama The Bitter Tea Of General Yen is by far Frank Capra's finest achievement. Barbara Stanwyck, subtly radiant, is the American missionary in Shanghai who is abducted by a highly sophisticated Chinese warlord (Asther); like the film itself, she is both fascinated and repelled by the prospect of miscegenation. Where Capra's other films are largely stolid, prosaic and talky, this is sensuous and profoundly cinematic, perhaps most notably in a sequence in which Stanwyck dreams of her seduction by a forceful Asther. Odd, but oddly moving. It is commercial free and uncut and the quality is excellent. The pictures are actual screen captures from the DVD. Sold on 1 DVD-R Disc in a DVD case with basic but nice artwork for the case. Why should you buy from me?
