An American soldier of fortune disguised as a priest falls in love with a missionary while trying to get out of war-torn China in 1947.

The Left Hand of God Film Synopsis

A man in priestly robes, seemingly the long-awaited Father O'Shea, arrives at a little-frequented Catholic mission in 1947 China. Though the man seems curiously uncomfortable with his priestly duties, his tough tactics prove very successful in the Seven Villages, as around them China disintegrates in civil war and revolution. But he has a secret, and his friendship with mission nurse Anne (an attractive war widow) seems to be taking on an unpriestly tone.

Deutsch
Der Geistliche, der 1944 in einer katholischen Missionsstation in China auftaucht, ist nicht ganz echt. Er trägt zwar die Soutane des erwarteten Paters OShea, aber in Wirklichkeit ist er ein flüchtiger US-Kampfpilot. Jim Carmody, der nach einer Notlandung in die Hände des skrupellosen Generals Mieh Yang gefallen ist, befindet sich auf der Flucht aus der Gefangenschaft. Unterwegs ist er auf Pater OShea gestoßen, der von Yangs Leuten erschossen worden ist. Die geistlichen Kleider des Toten, die Carmody nur als Tarnung dienen sollen, entscheiden sein Schicksal. In der Missionsstation wird der Pater nämlich dringend gebraucht. Trotz Gewissensbissen spielt Carmody seine Rolle zunächst weiter, um Yangs Häscher zu täuschen, dann aber auch, weil er die Leute der Mission nicht im Stich lassen will. Als ehemaliger Meßdiener ist Carmody mit den Riten vertraut und kann sich durchmogeln. Doch dann rücken Yangs Truppen gegen das Dorf an. Carmody steht vor einer schwerwiegenden Entscheidung.

Français
En 1947, dans une province reculée de Chine, un prêtre en conflit avec un seigneur de guerre tente d'honorer la mission à laquelle il est affecté.

Español
Corre el año 1947 en China. Carmody (Humphrey Bogart), un piloto estadounidense, tras ser derribado su avión, cae en poder de un tiránico señor de la guerra (Lee J. Cobb). Cuando consigue escapar, se hace pasar por sacerdote y se refugia en una pequeña misión católica.

Italiano
Jim Carmody, un aviatore americano abbattuto sui cieli della Cina, viene fatto prigioniero. Quando, presa l'identità di un missionario ucciso, riesce a fuggire, si rifugia presso una missione: riuscirà a salvare il villaggio dalla distruzione e, smessa la tonaca, troverà anche l'amore.

Magyar
Az Isten bal keze című filmdrámában Carmodyt, az amerikai pilótát támadás éri, és gépével lezuhan Kína fölött. A férfi életét megkímélik, s Jang hadúr tanácsadója lesz. Idővel elege lesz a háborúskodásból, és papnak öltözve megszökik fogvatartóitól. Egy missziós állomáson marad, s ott teljesít papi szolgálatot, ám Jang itt is megtalálja. Carmody azt javasolja, hogy kockával döntsenek sorsáról. Jang veszít, és elvonul.

Pусский
В 1947 году в Главную провинцию Китая прибывает с католической миссией святой отец О’ШИ. Миссия близка к закрытию, жителей окрестных деревень интересуют гражданские распри, а не религия. Да и сам священник как будто не спешит приступать к своим непосредственным обязанностям: куда больше его волнует военная вдова — красавица-медсестра Энн. Однако постепенно странные проповеди О’Ши поворачивают местное население в сторону католицизма. А его дружба с Энн приобретает совсем «несвященнический» характер…

Português
Em uma missão católica na China, o muito aguardado "padre O'Shea" prova ser um cara durão, perturbadoramente atraente para a enfermeira-missionária Anne. Um homem em vestes sacerdotais, aparentemente o muito aguardado padre O'Shea, chega a uma missão católica pouco frequentada em 1947 na China. Embora o homem pareça curiosamente desconfortável com seus deveres sacerdotais, suas táticas duras revelam-se muito bem-sucedidas nas Sete Aldeias, à medida que a China se desintegra na guerra civil e na revolução. Mas ele tem um segredo, e sua amizade com a enfermeira de missão Anne (uma atraente viúva de guerra) parece estar assumindo um tom peculiar.

فارسی
در یک ماموریتی دینی در چین، "پدر اوشی" که مدت زیادی است منتظر مانده ثابت می کند مردی قوی بوده اما بطور نگران کننده ای به پرستار ماموریت "آنه" علاقه مند می شود...

Español
En 1947, llega a una misión católica en China un sacerdote, el esperado padre O'Shea. El hombre parece incómodo con sus deberes, pero sus duras tácticas tienen éxito entre los habitantes de la aldea. Mientras tanto China se desangra entre la guerra civil y la revolución.

Polski
II Wojna Światowa, sławny pilot J. Carmony przymusowo ląduje w Chinach, gdzie przystaje jako doradca dla miejscowego przywódcy, generała Yanga. Trzy lata znosi tą rolę, ale w końcu ma już tego dość . Pod przebraniem księdza ucieka do misji katolickiej, gdzie udając duchownego wtapia się w życie misji. Poznaje tam i zakochuje się z wzajemnością, pewną pielęgniarkę Annę. Muszą jednak ukrywać to uczucie. Tymczasem generał Yang odnajduje go i z zemsty za ucieczkę grozi że wymorduje całą misję... To przedostatni film Bogarta, i jest to bardzo inna rola od dotychczasowych. Jim jest ciepłym i miłym człowiekiem potrafiącym kochać jak i cierpieć.

The CarpetbaggersDrama1964

Harold Robbins' tale of the ruthless men and beautiful women who shaped Hollywood. Harold Robbins' best seller about '30s Hollywood comes to the screen in a torrent of frank, controversial and (for the times) sensational scenes that helped break the Production Code. George Peppard is the ruthless tycoon who (with amazing parallels to Howard Hughes) builds a multi-million-dollar empire. Carroll Baker, who performs a razzle-dazzle striptease atop a glittering chandelier, is the Jean Harlow-type star. In addition to its depiction of the wild life in Tinseltown's early days, the film also boasts Alan Ladd's terrific final screen performance as the hero's sidekick, Nevada Smith.

Murder, My Sweet summary, synopsis, reviews
Murder, My SweetDrama1944

Murder, My Sweet, based on the Raymond Chandler novel "Farewell, My Lovely," featured a then controversial choice of Dick Powell to play the famous Philip Marlowe. His name is Philip Marlowe, and for the right price, this private eye will follow an unfaithful husband, find a missing bankroll, or spy on a suspicious neighbor. When he's drawn into a complex web of murder, blackmail and double-dealing, the result is the quintessential film-noir – the one that set the standard for the film noir genre.
