Title:
The Sand Pebbles
Synopsis:
McQueen gives one of his finest performances as cynical sailor on U.S. gunboat cruising China’s Yangtze River in 1926. Long but generally compelling drama mixes traditional action and romance with some pointed notions about American imperialism (and a few parallels to Vietnam). Splendidly photographed by Joseph MacDonald.
Engineer Jake Holman arrives aboard the gunboat U.S.S. San Pablo, assigned to patrol a tributary of the Yangtze in the middle of exploited and revolution-torn 1926 China. His iconoclasm and cynical nature soon clash with the ”rice-bowl” system which runs the ship and the uneasy symbiosis between Chinese and foreigner on the river. Hostility towards the gunboats presence reaches a climax when the boat must crash through a river-boom and rescue missionaries upriver at China Light Mission.
