Summary:After the runaway success of "Outside the Law", director Tod Browning reteamed with star Priscilla Dean on "Drifting", another hard-boiled crime picture flavored with Orientalism. Set in a remote Chinese village, and staged on an epic scale, Dean stars as Cassie Cook, an opium trafficker caught between an undercover government agent (Matt Moore) and a fellow smuggler (Wallace Beery). Dean may have been the star, but it is Anna May Wong (age eighteen and on the brink of stardom), who steals the show during the film's fiery climax. [www.kinolorber.com]
