港の女
Considered one of Maugham's more noteworthy works, the story was later adapted to the stage and brought to the screen three times. The first film was the 1928 silent "Sadie Thompson", starring Gloria Swanson as the titular character and Lionel Barrymore as Alfred Davidson, the missionary. Just four years later, in 1932, it was filmed again as "Rain", with Joan Crawford as Sadie and Walter Huston, the missionary. And in 1953, "Miss Sadie Thompson" was released in Technicolor, featuring Rita Hayworth and José Ferrer.
