The Inn of the Sixth Happiness Reviews
A Classic Must for your Home Library!
The cinematography, the setting, the costumes and the story make this a timeless classic. If you love Ingrid Bergman, this is a must-have.
A flawed but delightful epic
The Inn of Sixth Happiness is too long and drags on ocassion but is still terrific movie making. Bergman won an Oscar for her previous film, Anastasia, but her performance in this film was much better. Her work in "Sixth Happiness" has as much breadth and vision as the spectacular Chinese scenery that fills the movie. The only sour note other than the length of the film is in Robert Donat's protrayal of a Mandarin. While he received kudos for his work in the role, it still is a bit disconcerting for the modern viewer to see a Westerner in a part that should have been played by an Asian. Unfortunately, such casting decisions were often made this way to utilize "star power" in those days. But that is a small quibble when compared with the rest of this fine presentation. Watching it is 2 1/2 hours well spent.
