This is truly gripping. Alone on a craggy island, he holds his enemies off long enough to triumph. Though again, we never actually see him die. And we never find out what happens to Jimmy Hanley who's in the German ship's hospital when it is sunk. The general grind of life on board ship is shown properly, with plenty of tedious work to do to keep the ship in decent order.

George King's last film as a director is one of his best. Customs man Nigel Patrick investigate smugglers Elizabeth Sellars and Terence Morgan. Nice cast, but dreary story. Ronald Squire is the toff whose son is imprisoned by the Russian Secret Police. He goes into Russia to bring him out.
