The movie SATAN NEVER SLEEPS and the mass market paperback from Pocket Books, Cardinal edition #C429, were both released in 1962. The movie opened in New York City on Febrary 22, 1962, in what would be Clifton Webb’s final motion picture. It was also one of only two movies that Webb made without his trademark mustache.
Pearl Buck was one of the two writers of the script, she knew China well, eventually earning a Masters degree and working as a missonary in China during the years 1914-1933. She was tutored in Chinese with English becoming her second language. Her parents had been Presbyterian missonaires before her with Pearl living in several cities in China including Nanking, Shanghai, and a small rural village named Suzhon, which must have resembled the village of SATAN NEVER SLEEPS. Buck, a Phi Beta Kappa, eventually went on to receive the Pulizer Prize in 1932 and the first American woman writer in 1938 to receive a Nobel Prize in literature.

She and her family were eyewitnesses to at least one shooting battle between Chang Kai-Sheks troops, Communist forces, and assorted warlords in 1927, a battle in which several westerners were killed. At one point, Buck and her family had to go into hiding due to the neumerous bullets that were flying around. Conditions in China continued to be dangerous up to and even after the 1945 Communist uprising.
The movie, SATAN NEVER SLEEPS, carries several issues that Pearl Buck saw and lived through during her earlier life in China. Especially the issue of tug of war between Christianity and aetheism. She also would have lived among the peasants of that time no doubt sharing many episodes that the movie portrays. Whether a viewer appreciates this movie or not it represents a story that has many elements of truth and would have been one not completely objective to Pearl Buck. Her script helps bring sobering reality to the events pictured on the movie screen.
I first saw the movie in 1962 shortly before shipping out to Japan where I was to serve on a military base between Tokyo and Yokohama. I later found out from one of Pearl’s books on Japan that she too had lived in that area of the Tokaido Road on one of her family’s return trip from China.
The movie remains one of my favorites though I cannot exactly say why, for it is a movie with much travail and human suffering. And to this day China is still a land of much travail. But be that as it may, the movie is one I have watched many times. Maybe it is the dialogue between Holden and Webb, maybe it because in the end, though many innocents have died, the ‘devil’ returns to the church and represents all the good that must yet remain in China. No doubt about it, it is a film that will leave most watchers with many thoughts and impressions.
Semper Fi.
Poor William Holden! He never got to make a romantic movie with the beautiful France Nuyen! He almost made “The World of Susie Wong” with her, but she got pulled and the equally gorgeous Nancy Kwan was substituted. Here in “Satan Never Sleeps”, France is totally in love with William Holden, but unfortunately for her (and him) he is a Catholic Priest. Williams character goes through some big struggles with temptation but never gives up his vows. Just when he seems to be at the breaking point, an event happens that changes the life of France’s character and their relationship. Not a romantically satisfying movie at all. But, I like both Holden’s and France’s performances so it was worth seeing. You will see more great footage of France Nuyen in this film than any other. She is at her beauty prime!
