Movie Info
Merchant Marine sailors Joe Rossi (Humphrey Bogart) and Steve Jarvis (Raymond Massey) are charged with getting a supply vessel to Russian allies as part of a sea convoy. When the group of ships comes under attack from a German U-boat, Rossi and Jarvis navigate through dangerous waters to evade Nazi naval forces. Though their mission across the Atlantic is extremely treacherous, they are motivated by the opportunity to strike back at the Germans, who sank one of their earlier ships.

Jan 21, 2021Excellent tribute to merchant marines. I'm surprised the only Oscar nomination went to the scriptwriter, because tech credits are all award-worthy. Shout out to Warner Bros. editing legend George Amy who actually won the award in the same year for cutting Howard Hawks' "Air Force." Cinematographer Ted McCord's work is also exemplary. Cast is super with Humphrey Bogart and Raymond Massey leading the way.

Jul 01, 2008Action is right! Plenty of it in this WWII drama about the Merchant Marines. Bogart and Massey shine as does the supporting cast. Exciting, touching and patriotic.
