Radio review – Lux#415 - "China" (1943) **

In radio format, without the faces of the stars and John Farrow’s direction, the weaknesses of the story are all too highlighted. Alan Ladd, Loretta Young and William Bendix repeat their roles and it’s always cool to have Alan Ladd as a tough guy in the third world, its fairly uninspired. Most of the fun comes from listening to Young praise the Chinese guerrillas and the Chinese government as sticking up for the little guy. De Mille and Young talk affectionately about Madame Kai-Shek in the post-show chat.
