Hai-Tang, also known as Le Chemin du déshonneur (The Road to Dishonour) is a 1930 British-German drama film directed by Richard Eichberg and Jean Kemm and starring Anna May Wong, Marcel Vibert and Robert Ancelin.[1] It was made at Elstree Studios.
Like many other films of the early talkie era before dubbing became more widespread, the film was shot in multiple-language versions, each with a different cast. Three versions of the film were made so they could be screened throughout Europe and the colonial world, such as in Mozambique, Australia and South Africa.[2] This was Wong's first sound film billed as the star,[3][4][Note 1] and in all three versions she appeared as the female lead.
An English-language version (The Flame of Love/The Road to Dishonour) and a German-language version (Hai-Tang: Der Weg zur Schande) of the film were made with different casts[Note 2] except for Wong, who spoke her part in three different languages. The French-language version was sometimes referred to as L’Amour, maître des choses in French film magazines).[5] Confusingly, all three versions are often referred to simply as Hai-Tang.[6]
In the Russian Empire, a young officer and a powerful Grand Duke both fall in love with a Chinese woman.
