Till Mae hit town!"; "From a play by Mae West and a story by Marion Morgan and George B. Dowell"; a really wild story where Mae West is an entertainer in San Francisco's Chinatown, and she is being blackmailed into having an affair by the owner of the club she works at, who is Asian, and she kills him and goes on the run, and meets a missionary who dies, and West takes her place and pretends to be a missionary and goes to Alaska, and she also is romanced by Victor McLaglen, and there is much more to the story!) starring Mae West (in the title role), Victor McLaglen, Philip Reed, Helen Jerome Eddy, Harry Beresford, Harold Huber, and Tetsu Komai. Note that while this was a movie made a couple years after the Production Code was in place, it broke many of its rules, and it is a mystery how it got made. It also has much anti-Asian racism, and that likely accounts for why the movie is little seen in recent years. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
