William A. Seiter (If You Could Only Cook) brings top-talent Columbia stars Glenn Ford (The Big Heat, Human Desire) and Edward G. Robinson (The Whole Town's Talking, Double Indemnity) into conflict as competing crewmen on a World War II Naval vessel. Robinson is Steve Boleslavski, the re-enlisted veteran sailor whose seniority displaces the younger Mickey Donohue (Ford) as Chief Boatswain's Mate. The hard-driving, perfectionist old sailor wins few friends among the younger crew, but he has the support of his Commander (Regis Toomey). Steve and Mickey have additional reasons to be suspicious of each other when Mickey falls for Steve's daughter (Marguerite Chapman, Counter-Attack, The Seven Year Itch). Newly remastered.
