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

Antagony & Ecstasy
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.

Film and Felt
Rating: 4/5 --
Weird, poetic, deliberately pretentious drama from Capra.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
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."
