I'm On Board

Rating: 9/10 (23 June 2010)

How in the world do you make a 96 minute movie where the entire thing happens on a 30 ft. lifeboat? You commission Alfred Hitchcock to do it.
Nope there are no flashback montages or dream sequences. You start with a shipping vessel that's already under water after being hit by a German torpedo, one lifeboat and a fantastic cast including Tallulah Bankhead and Walter Slezak among others and let the story wash over you. Putting the technical challenges aside this was a real feat of movie making from 1944.
If you're 9 or 90 you are sure to enjoy Lifeboat.
