A John Huston Film
At the beginning of World War 1, Charlie (Humphrey Bogart) tries to save Rosie (Catherine Hepburn) from the German invasion in Africa, taking her on his steamboat. Rosie is an English spinster and the sister of a priest who is killed by the Germans. She is quite set in her ways, but in the same time brave enough to undertake a dangerous journey which aim is to destroy a huge German warship, The Louisa, using handmade torpedoes. For an experienced traveller like Charlie, such an initiative is complete madness. Even though the conditions put them against each other, they also bring the two travellers closer and eventually they fall in love. Finally, their handmade torpedoes manage to destroy The Louisa and save the British pride.
I enjoyed the film, there is no doubt it's great! But I still think that Marlon deserved that Oscar more than Bogart did.
Anyways, the posters a
re great fun!
