Plot[edit]
Jane Hoyt (Susan Hayward) arrives in Hong Kong, looking for her husband, thrill-seeking photojournalist Louis (Gene Barry). She attracts the eye of shady shipping magnate Hank Lee (Clark Gable). With his help, she learns that Louis entered Communist China and was imprisoned as a suspected spy.
She decides to arrange his escape. Hank advises her to give up the foolhardy venture, but she refuses. She foolishly meets Fernand Rocha (Mel Welles) alone and gives him a $500 deposit to set up a rescue, but he merely gambles the money away and locks her up for his lecherous purposes.

Production[edit]
The film was based on a novel by Ernest Gann. Gann had lived in Hong Kong in his youth working for a telephone company and always wanted to write a book set there. He moved there in 1953, hired a Chinese junk and researched and wrote the novel.[3]
Gann's novel attracted the interest of film studios before it had been published. His novels Island in the Sky and The High and the Mighty had just been filmed with John Wayne and Wayne became interested in purchasing the film rights.[4]>[5] However, film rights went to 20th Century Fox, who had a deal with Clark Gable, and Gable asked them to buy the novel as a vehicle for him.[6]Buddy Adler was assigned to produce, Edward Dmyrtryk to direct and Gann to write the script.[7]
The novel was published in October 1954.[8]
Susan Hayward signed to play the female lead. The film was set mostly in Hong Kong and was filmed on location there, but Hayward could not take her children there because she was in the middle of a divorce. She offered to pull out of the film. Instead the film was rewritten and scenes featuring her were filmed in Hollywood.[citation needed] In a few brief outdoor scenes shot at Hong Kong landmarks, a Hayward double with her back to the camera was shown with Gable.[9]
David Niven was going to play the police inspector, but then decided he did not want to go to Hong Kong, so the role was taken by Michael Rennie.[10]
The rest of the unit left for Hong Kong in November 1954 for five weeks of location filming.[11][12]

UPDATE:
W10 Defender detected spyware in the Platinum ISO version.
'Spyware: Win32/WebHancer.A'
I don't know if this is a false-positive but it took a FULL scan of all my computer's files to find it, like I do once a week. There were multiple file locations for this isolated program, all of which were under the SOF folders. I don't trust it, as this particular program is known to monitor web activity. I'm uninstalling the game, even though I never got it to run properly.

Windows 10 here. Game installed just fine, no problem.
Whenever I try to launch the game, it briefly goes into its default resolution and crashes back to my desktop afterwards. I tried different compatibility modes and force-ran the program as the admin. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

A game worth playing! :)
It's bizarre to see SoF here when Isozone has the community edition. Then again, people can grab the game cheap on eBay or Amazon, but a digital download of SoF is always appreciated, so no complaints here!
