China Sky (1945)


RKO Radio Pictures
Directed by Ray Enright
My rating: 1.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Turner Classic Movies)

Randolph Scott is an American doctor in China running a hospital in a remote town beset by constant air raids. His real problem, however, is not bombs but women. His new wife is jealous of the time he spends with his female co-doctor. She forces him to chose between her or his work, which of course is an impossible predicament. Meanwhile, a Japanese prisoner is manipulating her into helping him escape. Take away the war and foreign settings, this is actually not that far from Scott's more usual B western fare, and not much better.
