Kanonenboot am Yangtse-Kiang
The Sand Pebbles
This is the heroic story of the men on the U.S.S. San Pablo who disturbed the sleeping dragon of savage China as the threatened world watched in breathless terror.
You're a U.S. Navy engineer on the Yangtze in 1926, fixing engines on a gunboat. But the vessel's presence inflames Chinese locals and pits you against your captain. Wise directs with scale. The film lingers on America's violent diplomacy.
