Much like "Ode to Joy" always reminds me of. "A Clockwork Orange", from this point on, "Waltzing Matilda" will always bring me back to this movie, especially if it's played as a dirge.
Gregory Peck plays a Commanding Officer, but there seems to be little that he can command, considering he has no control over the lives of the sailors who are on his submarine.
Ava Gardner is said by many to be the most beautiful actress in the world, and I suppose it's to her credit that her character comes across as boozey and needy.
Fred Astaire in a non-musical role somehow seems to be wasted as a drunkard who smiles at the most inappropriate times. I really don't understand why he was cast in this.
Anthony Perkins, I have to say, was the best of the major actors. He plays a young man with a wife and baby that he truly loves and is faced with the heartbreaking position to protect them in whatever way he can.
I'm glad I was able to find and watch this, but I can't imagine ever wanting to watch it again.

Canadian film from the 90s in French with subtitles. A bunch of drunken party goers are bored, so to amuse themselves, they order a male escort from the back of a newspaper. The request was supposed to be cancelled, & they leave the host alone but the
escourt shows up anyway. There's more drinking, a little sex and a lot of shirtless pontificating. There's a lot more but I don't want to be as annoying and pointless as their movie.
