I'm just going to say this once.
Well maybe 2 or 3 times.
It's Mary Celeste.
Mary.
Mary Celeste.
Mary, Mary, Mary.
Thank you.
Otherwise, well, not much to say about this film, it's just a little bit too old and decrepit to be really enjoyable (I wonder if better-preserved versions exist and perhaps other reviewers have seen those?) I struggled to follow the dialogue and the action seemed almost a harkback to the silent era. Of interest only to students of film and serious fans, in my humble opinion. There are some remarkable barrel-chested sailors in the cast...otherwise, skippable.
In its favour the story does actual bear a faint resemblance to historical fact, even to the point of getting the ship's name right (Mary - did I already say that?)
