It's 1935 in northern China near the Mongolian border. Agatha Andrews leads a mission where Dr. D.R. Cartwright (Anne Bancroft) arrives. Charles Pether (Eddie Albert) and Emma Clark (Sue Lyon) are two of the teachers. Refugees arrive from another mission after an attack by ruthless Mongolian warlord Tunga Khan.

It's legendary western director John Ford's final film. It would be nice to have more exterior shots of the landscape. The religious righteousness of Agatha Andrews could be more prominent earlier in the movie. It's also maybe more interesting to have the movie start with the doctor journey to the mission. I just want more foreshadowing of what happens between them later in the movie. Otherwise, this is an intriguing eastern. Tunga's brutality is believable. Sure it would be nice if a non-white guy could play the role but that's expecting too much for a film of this era.
