In a classic true story of wartime heroics, Ingrid Bergman stars as Gladys Aylward, the English missionary who saw it as her destiny to live in China and saved more than 100 orphans after Japan invaded. A stirring tale of noble self-sacrifice, albeit with a fictitious romantic strand that embarrassed the real Aylward.
