Rating: 10/10 -- If any Hollywood film from the '30s is positively begging to be rediscovered...this is it. Full Review

Sep 27, 2007
Rating: 55/100 -- An odd duck to be sure: substantially darker than the other Capra films I've seen, with a Chinese civil war and firing squads serving as the backdrop for a love story that never really comes together. Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- Weird, poetic, deliberately pretentious drama from Capra.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Nov 24, 2003
Rating: 3.5/5 -- The 'bitter tea' of the title is, of course, a not so veiled allusion to the cup of suffering that Christ asks to be taken from him but to which he says "not my will, but yours be done." Full Review
