When you see a great movie like this one, you wonder what happened to the country that made these great films? Have all the good screen writers of today been precluded from a voice in Hollywood or were those writers and directors of yesteryear just that good? Mahin did a great job in adapting the story for the big screen. I liked the changes he made to the story. I'm at a loss to adequately describe the great efforts made here I'll just say that this film is first rate at all levels. This film is part of the gold standard this is how you tell a story on film. While watching it I felt that I was on that boat; that I had been transformed by the story. This is movie making and story telling at its best.
Manuel Fidello lives!
Even 70 years later I have to congratulate all involved in the making of this film. What a treasure.
