About this product

Product Information

The boozing, smoking, cussing captain of a tramp steamer, Charlie Allnut, saves prim and proper Rose Sayer after her brother is killed by German soldiers at the beginning of World War I in Africa. Many quarrels later, the two set sail on the Ulonga-Bora in order to sabotage a German ship. Based on the 1935 novel by C.S. Forester, the wonderful combination of Hepburn and Bogie (who won an Oscar) makes this a thoroughly enjoyable blend of comedy and adventure. Later came the book (and Clint Eastwood film) White Hunter, Black Heart, which chronicled Peter Viertel's experiences observing Huston throughout the making of the picture.

  • A bit dated, but a CLASSIC!

    To create a movie that has adventure, exotic location, well developed dialog/characters and a love story that even a guy can appreciate is rare. And, this is the best of the genre. Plus, Bogart and Hepburn give some of their best career performances.

  • A special boat on a special mission, but it becomes a metaphor for so much more. A fine mess of a love story.

    I had Hepburn in my curriculum for film students. This reminds me thart we should add the film history of Humphrey Bogart too.

  • Great movie, very well restored.

    This is one of my favorite movies since I first saw it in 1974. It's not on the movie channels much if at all, so now I can watch it whenever I want.
