ok and yes and this be one of the great chamber piece of all time and set on the open ocean no less and but also . this be a great one for give it to you both a a straight ahead melodrama and and a a kind of symbolic deal for where the nation ( and the world ) be at the time . you know and where people be people and but they represent kind of people and or group of people . and their action can be take for this or that and literal or representative or whatnot . the people in the boat and like the people in the world watch the movie and be at war . it the natural thought train watch this action to wonder what we would do in these people position . how would we treat the german . each other . and if this be bein make today and not a a re make and but a it original patriotic allegory and who would be in the boat . and what would the character all represent from today world stage . and what would be the message for the american ( and world wide ) movie go public . hmmm . great flick . and tallulah bankhead be one bad as lady and it look like . they sure don not make em like they use to .
