A film expedition went to China, scientific men devised new tricks of photography and sound, historâ€" jans went into research, and in Holâ€" lywood they built a whole Chinese city with every detail approved by Chinese experts. .No picture in history has ever been so carefully made, It is enough to say that the picture with its visual and audible power is even greater than the book, more empotional, more real and more effective. "The Good Earth," based on Pearl 8. Buck‘s novel, will live in sereen history as n“odfi-nww*.-d all time.
