What's left behind the scenes
- Gladys Aylward (1902-1970) was born in London. Once an ordinary maid, she became involved in missionary work in China and is most famous for her work with local children. She received Chinese citizenship in 1936. Four years later, while she herself was ill, during the Sino-Japanese War, Aylward led over a hundred Chinese children through the mountains to safety. In 1958, the year the film was released, she founded an orphanage in Taiwan, which she managed until her death.
- Almost all outdoor scenes were filmed in North Wales, with studio filming taking place in England, so the entire film was shot in the West – using Chinese people as extras. Chinese children in the film were played by Chinese children from Liverpool, which is home to one of the oldest Chinese diasporas in Europe.
