Name of really old movie and/or actors

[flicken]

I saw this movie back in the mid 40's (possibly). I was quite young. It was a WW II. I remember the Japanese army invading China. Some Americans were going through countryside picking up Chinese refugees in the back of trucks. One girl noticed smoke coming from the area of her grandparents(?) farm. She jumped off the truck and went back to the farm where she found both people dead. They had been killed by the Japanese while milking the cows. The film was in black and white. Any info of name or actors would be greatly appreciated. I've been trying to find this movie for a number of years.

I haven't seen it but your description sounds like "China" with Alan Ladd.

gettingblurry: Looked up "China" but sorry to say, that was not it. Thanks for your help, though! Still looking.

I'm afraid if you're sure it's not 'China', I'm stumped. However I've taken the liberty of posting your question on a couple of boards on the IMDb. Links below...

Not to blow my own trumpet, I still think 'China' sounds a good bet. Did you read the full review on the link above?

Aside from the suggestions above, one poster also gave me this link to a WW2 movie site that may help...

gettinblurry: Thank you so much for bringing to my attention that I could find the full story on China. Previously, I had only read the basic theme. After reading the full thing, I do believe China just might be the movie. Now I just have to find it. Thank you so much again for all your help!!!!!!
