Newman's Dangerous Crossing. Part of the Fox Film Noir series, Newman's classy B-movie plays more like a psychological thriller with some particularly atmospheric visuals (heavy on the studio-generated fog). As her honeymoon begins, newlywed Ruth Bowman (Jeanne Craine, Pinky) explores the ship while husband John (Carl Betz, The Donna Reed Show) runs an errand. On deck, a friendly divorcée warns Ruth, 'You mustn't let him out of your sight--husbands can get lost so easily.' (The familiar-looking sets were recycled from 1953's Titanic and Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.) Hours later, John hasn't returned, and no one has seen him. Ruth’s inquiries uncover an empty room, a missing passport, and her spouse’s absence from the passenger list. All signs point to delusion. Ruth's plight brings her to the attention of Dr. Paul Manning (the elegant Michael Rennie, The Day the Earth Stood Still), who offers to help in any way he can. Though Ruth confesses to a brief bout with depression, there’s nothing else in her background to indicate instability, but that disclosure leads Manning to the real cause of her distress. Based on John Dickson Carr's 1943 radio play Cabin B-13 and shot in 19 days, Newman (This Island Earth) conjures up as much intrigue as Alfred Hitchcock's The Lady Vanishes. The excellent extras include comprehensive commentary from Fox historian Aubrey Solomon, a short featurette (Peril at Sea: Charting a Dangerous Crossing), several stills galleries, and the original theatrical trailer. --Kathleen C. Fennessy Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - Film Noir, Mystery Fairly decent plot, with some level of mystery, probably a "B" movie. Nonetheless, I enjoyed the movie. If you enjoy film noir, I'd recommend this film. It might be worth seeing because Michael Rennie of "The Day the World Stood Still" starred in the movie. Rating: - Fun Film Noir Thriller I had never seen this film noir. I liked it because it draws you into the mystery. A new bride along with her husband are going on a cruise for their honeymoon. He leaves her in her cabin to "check" on something and promptly disappears. When upset bride, Jeanne Crain goes to check on her missing husband she returns to her cabin to find it's not her cabin at all! It's enough to drive a new bride crazy. Is she? We know what happened because we just saw it. Why won't anybody believe her? What's ... Read More Rating: - A Hidden Gem After a whirlwind romance, a couple set sail on the "Monrovia" for their dream honeymoon. But no bliss ensues. Hubby Carl Betz (the dad on the "Donna Reed Show"), vanishes after a trip to the Bursar's office. The frantic new bride (Jeanne Crain) is understandably beside herself! An overwrought Crain looks high and low but receives scant assistance from a polite, though skeptical crew. No one saw Betz! JC has no record of any marriage- Betz had all their papers. Viewers know all along that Crain ...

Rating: - A Fun Example of the Genre "Dangerous Crossing" was not intended to be a great movie, nor is it. But it is a lot of fun and incorporates many of the characteristics of its genre. The acting is good, the plot fun (with a twist), and the ship setting creates a special atmosphere. I recommend this film, and the DVD is of very good quality. see more Browse for similar items by category: Classics - Genres - DVD - Video - General Mystery & Suspense - Genres - DVD - Video - General Mystery & Suspense - Genres - DVD - Video - Classics Mystery & Suspense - Genres - DVD - Video - Film Noir Mystery & Suspense - Genres - DVD - Video - Mystery
