Description

In this classic crime thriller, passengers start to die aboard a transatlantic ship while a reporter (William Lundigan) races against time to stop a notorious international criminal before he kills again. After falling for a beautiful passenger (Maris Wrixon), the reporter becomes intrigued by the mysterious circumstances surrounding an antique chest her uncle recently purchased. They suspect it's a master forgery by the infamous Black Parrot, but before the couple can make any headway in their investigation, her uncle is found dead. Based on Eleanor Robeson Belmont and Harriet Ford's play and Burton E. Stevenson's novel, this provocative mystery serves up perplexing false clues, unexpected twists and a truly surprising conclusion.

  • DVD

  • Fine With Me
I enjoyed this picture on mainly two levels. First, it is a well-done "who-done-it" and the denouement is surprising. I didn't guess it. It was based on a stage play which usually is a good indication of quality. But my main source of pleasure is in seeing a very young and very handsome William Lundigan. He is truly beautiful in this picture and a fine actor as well. For Lundigan fans, this picture is a "sine qua non". As far as the technical quality is concerned, I think everything - the video and audio are fine. A high recommendation for classic picture enthusiasts, Lundigan fans, or mystery buffs. ... show more

  • It was just okay!
For me, it was a bit underwhelming! What I mean by that is it didn't have much suspense. I was a bit surprised by the ending but other than that, it was just okay for a rainy Sunday afternoon when there isn't much to watch on the TV! If you like to have old movies for your collection, then I would say "buy" it but if not, and you like suspense,you may want to pass on it but everyone is different in their opinions..that is why i purchased it in the first place, based upon the other reviews. ... show more

  • Very, Very Cool Black & White Mystery
What a great mystery from the early 1940's. I am addicted to these older black-and-white mysteries and this one does not disappoint. A "killer cabinet" . . . a master thief . . . a handsome leading man in William Lundigan and the great addition of Paul Cavanagh who (whom?) many may be familiar with from his appearances in a couple of the "Sherlock Holmes" series with Basil Rathbone. Since this is from the Warner Bros Archive series, you will need a DVD play-only or Blu-Ray player to view. Have fun! ... show more

  • Buy, if you enjoy light-handed noir-ignore packaging picture. :D
Ordered because of comments made by others. Glad. Felt like the side kick cop. They were knocking people off so fast I didn't catch the alibis or names, before they were off the suspect list for good! :D :D :D I am surprised I hadn't seen this before.... Enjoyable.

  • good noir film
this was first time seeing this movie and it was very enjoyable. love black and white movies/tv. sometimes it seems that color detracts from the quality of the show. this is a good mystery noir and one i'll be watching again. glad it's part of my library and that i decided to buy it.
