Shanghai Lady (1929)





A beautiful blonde in a Shanghai maison de joie cuts loose and tries to become a lady. Mary Nolan gives a sincere characterization. Her voice is a bit harsh, but is perfect for the part. Anders Randolf, as a formidable mandarin, Wheeler Oakman, as a half-caste detective, and Lydia Yeamans Titus, as the irascible madame of the dive, are splendid. Universal's best picture in months.
