    Ingrid Bergman is both beautiful and compelling in this story of an English missionary in China. Her presence elevates what would otherwise be an ethnocentric and somewhat dated film.

    ingrid bergman is excellent in this and plays a very determined woman. it's very watchable. this is the 2nd time i've seen it and i will probably watch it more times. shows you a bit of the chinese way of life before the japs invaded

    Finely wrought drama of a truly brave selfless woman. Not a lot of Hollywood artifice just a simple story of someone who felt a calling and pursued it with single minded determination to find it made her life one of meaning and importance. Ingrid Bergman is perfectly cast here an...( read more)d give a beautiful performance supported by a fine Curt Jurgens and especially the touching and dignified Robert Donat in his last film. A winner.

    Nicely made but I lost interest somewhere in the middle; just wasn't my type of movie.

    Even though I know Gladys Aylward abhorred this movie, I really like it as a good fictional account of her life.

    I think it would have been a bit better if they made it more about Jesus. That's how Gladys Aylward would have said. This movie made her seem like the hero when her autobiography, The Small Woman, made God the hero.
