Shanghai Surprise (1986) Original Rolled Poster 27x41

Shanghai Surprise (1986), directed by Jim Goddard, is a romantic adventure comedy starring Sean Penn and Madonna as an unlikely duo on a treasure hunt in 1930s Shanghai. Penn plays Glendon Wasey, a salesman, while Madonna is Gloria Tatlock, a missionary with a mysterious past, and together they search for a lost opium shipment amidst political chaos and danger. Despite its exotic setting and star power, the film was widely panned for its uneven tone, weak script, and lackluster chemistry between its leads.
