Humphrey Bogart stars as a ship Captain during WWII who is seemingly shell shocked and takes command of a broken down mine sweeper.
During a fierce storm, he loses his cool, and his first officer, Van Johnson, takes over the ship
This movie pulls you in all directions. At first-you think Fred MacMurray is the good guy-but no. He's a cowardly back stabber.
Bogie- who is supposed to be the 'Bad Guy',- does such a great job in his role- you hate him and feel bad for him at the same time.
A great performance by a great actor.
This is NOT a war movie. It's about human nature. Great film!
