Flame of Love

Set in the exotic surroundings of Russia before the First World War, Flame of Love tells the tragic story of the doomed love between a young Chinese dancing girl and the adjutant to a Russian Grand Duke.

One of five British films featuring Chinese-American actress Anna May Wong, Flame of Love (also known as Hai-Tang) was the star's first 'talkie', made during her stay in London in the early 1930s, when Hollywood's proscription of love scenes between Asian and Caucasian actors deprived Wong of leading roles.

Also featuring Blackmail star John Longden and German actor Georg Schnell, Flame of Love is presented here in a brand-new transfer from the original film elements, in its as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratio.
