The Rat (Herbert Wilcox) is the trade name of a light-footed, light-fingered, essentially noble Paris Apache with a Viennese accent (Anton Walbrook), whose associations with 1) a maiden pure of heart (Renee Ray), 2) a fancy lady (Ruth Chatterton), and 3) a predatory stuffed shirt (Hugh Miller) leave Montmartre's half-world a better place to live in. The Rat was originally (1924) a pot-boiled play by England's Constance Collier and Ivor (Keep the Home Fires Burning) Novello. On the screen it is still the same lukewarm dish of tea.

The Wife of General Ling (Gaumont British), as a timely reminder that the sun never sets on the British accent, lay, its scene in British Crown Colony Hon -Kong. There it huffs & puffs until it blows down the house of double-dealing Genera1 Ling. Most imperial gesture: Actor Alan Napier, as the film's aptly named Governor Buckram, stepping out unarmed before a nasty-looking horde of Chinese bandits, demanding and getting their supine surrender.
