Film Of Merchant Seamen At War
“Neutral Port,” featuring Will Fyffe, Leslie Banks, Yvonne Arnaud, and directed by Marcel Vamel, Wifi shortly be released in New Zealahd. Ships and shipping are at the top of the news. One reads the storiesof the gallant Rawalpindi, and the heroic Jervis Bay. Their deeds axe the deeds of merchant seamen turned Jack Tars, who personify the tradition that comes as second nature to the men who sail in British ships. “Neutral Port" is a story of an average British mastermariner, His ship is sunk, without warning, and; believing in the justice of an eye for an eye, he boards and captures as enemy ship. Will Fyffe as the tough Scotch skipper is said to give a performance that will be talked about in British homes all over the world for many a month to come.
