Review of The Inn of the Sixth Happiness

I am happy the woman pursued a personal project of "helping" all those poor Chinese people. But that is a tidal theme of western colonialism from Columbus on. Images of her being the central person to herd Chinese children, even when other adults are around, reinforces England's predatory mythology that white Christian culture has a mission to save the godless, pagan world that is not England. The 1950's puked out this kind of cinema by the dozens. Westerners might well reflect on cheerleading for this kind of cultural poison.
