Latin teacher Raimund Gregorius (Irons) finds a book by Portuguese poet and doctor Amadeu de Prado (Huston) and his life is irrevocably changed. Determined to learn more about the author, Gregorius boards the night train to Lisbon and begins to piece together an epic story of oppression and revolution, loyalty and betrayal, love and jealousy, played out against the backdrop of a brutal fascist dictatorship. In his exploration of Amadeu de Prados life, Gregorius finds that life can change in an instant.
Like any good train murder mystery, there is an assortment of interesting characters, each seemingly with something to hide an American movie star, illicit lovers, a golfing aficionado, there's even a Hercules Poirot-type French police inspector. But perhaps the most tantalizing characters are Hardwicke and his assistant, who share a strange love-hate relationship. Yet it is Veidt who is the most mysterious, playing a suave yet sinister fellow who boards the Rome Express on the trail of a priceless Van Dyck painting, recently swiped from a Paris gallery. Solid script, great performances. 35mm.
In this thrilling remake of Josef von Sternberg's Shanghai Express, Joseph Cotten (The Third Man) stars as World Health Organization doctor Michael Bachlin, traveling by train from Shanghai to Peking. Among the other passengers on board the Peking Express are Michael's former lover (Corinne Calvet, Rope of Sand), a priest (Edmund Gwenn, Foreign Correspondent) and a reporter (Benson Fong, Deception), all fleeing Chinese Communist rule. But when an outlaw (Marvin Miller, Dead Reckoning) and his terrifying gang hold the train hostage, the refugees are plunged into even greater danger. Director William Dieterle (Portrait of Jennie, The Turning Point) mixes gripping film noir with breathtaking action-adventure in Peking Express, featuring gorgeous cinematography by Charles Lang (A Foreign Affair) and an excellent script by John Meredyth Lucas (Dark City), Jules Furthman (The Outlaw) and Harry Hervey (Road to Singapore).
