Adventures of British seamen aboard a freighter towards the start of World War II. |
Reviewed by Chris Tookey

| | A curate's egg. Gregg Toland's Oscar-nominated camerawork is excellent, and John Ford shows many of his strengths as a director, brilliantly creating the atmosphere of shipboard life; but the cast-members have a distracting multitude of accents (John Wayne is especially hard to swallow as a Swedish farm-lad), the screenplay ranges from moments of great power to romantic banalities about the sea. Richard Hageman's score and Sherman Todd's editing were Oscar-nominated. | | |
