Michael Dunn, Simone Signoret (naturally), and Oskar Werner save this lengthy film from total ruin. It's a pretentious film with a motley collection of rather trivial stories about bickering, barely interesting people. Vivien Leigh's last film. A real shame, because her glorious career deserves a more fitting conclusion.

A decent film about a boat full of passengers from all walks of life bound for Germany during the interwar period. It takes a while to really get going, but afterward, there are certainly some good scenes and dialogue. However, the film is too long and a bit tedious. The cast is international, with quite a few familiar names.
