East Meets West is a 1936 British drama film directed by Herbert Mason and starring George Arliss, Lucie Mannheim, Godfrey Tearle and John Laurie. It was made at the Lime Grove Studios in London.[1] The film's art direction was by Oscar Friedrich Werndorff.
A small Middle Eastern state is coveted by the major powers for strategic reasons.[2]
Writing for The Spectator in 1936, Graham Greene gave the film a very poor review, succinctly warning readers "to avoid [it] like the plague".[3]
