Hervey's impressions of China would stay with him for the rest of his life, not least in his treatment for the 1932 movie Shanghai Express."Approaching Canton we were gliding past ugly, ramshackle dwellings and go-downs; grass-thatched house-boats, sampans, junks, and lighters, and millions of roofs that were flung in uneven terraces against the sky.".
