I always enjoy rewatching this one, some of these old movies are just great entertainment..even after all of these years! Thanks for downloading this one for us!
Walter Brennan had a movie series back in the '30s where he was a Captain of the high seas. One of the series was exactly this - they get stranded on a desert island. At first I thought Walter Brennan was in this - Nice upload
Realtively short adventure / romance flick. Lots of action, character studies and very good acting. the director did a whale of a job. Mucho entertaining. Some say it went by too fast. I could have stood another half hour easy. TY CCC. Great chat gang. 3.5 ⭐s. 🤩
I think this is one of the films they limited to around an hour so the drive-ins could run double features (both features were distributed as a package).
I like BOTH the B&W and the Colorized versions, each being rather a different experience. Combine the glass half-empty with the one half-full, and you've got it all !!
Entertainment, plain ole black and white fun. The sea plane was as big as a luxury train on the inside, must have had a nice bathtub, they all changed for dinner!
At 11:40 the navagator gives an erronious position. He says west instead of east. The position he radio'd was between Hawaii and the US mainland...not 700 miles north of Guam. Someone who knew a little bit wrote or edited the script, very plausable. Still, the searchers would know the clipper had flown west from Hawaii and the position must have switched east and west. Eight years after the movie was made hundreds of B29 bombers would pass this point, half way to their bombing mission over Tokyo. These movies are more interesting if you know the history, the context.
In the first couple of minutes I made three observations,1 Everyone is on speed ( fast talking),2 Hats are in and 3, Majority of actors are dead. If the WW2 didn't get them, old age would have.
At 11:43, their "approximate position is "N 22, W 143." That position is about 300 miles due EAST of Honolulu. So what are they doing, flying in circles or back to the mainland?
This is a great movie I would love to have a set up like that on an island. I wouldn't leave either. I live on a boat and I'm surrounded by Islands but boat people not welcome to set foot on land, unless they find a place to come ashore and have written permission from a landowner. We have to sneak around to get to shore, and be haunted by police and millionaires. I got mine and not in my backyard kind of people. I worked my ass off on this Island Building swimming pools and homes and putting up fences for a bunch of ungrateful millionaire scum. And they all wish they could live like me, but they just can't get used to the hard work that it is. Living on a boat is anything but free.
That servant laughts to much, but the owner is right. These entitled jerks need to do some work for once. America is full of these types of crooks even in 1938. No doubt going back to the beginning.
Ah, the days before frisking and pat downs when it was possible to bring weapons and wads of money on an aeroplane. How about the size of that men's room!
The only thing worse than Harold Robert Buckley string of unlikely relationships, coincidences, and right on time deaths, and very unlikely conduct awful writing is the terrible direction and awful acting. Shame on the studio.
Fox News live . This fella is making ASSUMPTIONS about Biden and trump . Stupidness . Don’t listen to this guy . He is only grandstanding . Armchair critic !
The Creator God of the Judeo-Christian universe exists and has a name, His Name is above all names, His Name is Jesus of Nazareth. my book of deaths twice Because I had a dangerous illness in my intestines and unlike Joram, the Lord had compassion on me and did not let me die in that tortuous, painful and humiliating illness. His mercy is more beautiful than beauty and through his mercy I breathe and live. It has also freed me from other illnesses such as mental, existential and spiritual as well. He who humiliates himself does not despise

Directed by James Whale. He also directed "Frankenstein".
A lot of Sinners movies back then... I take it sinners was like a 30's code term for people who liked to live it up and generally have a good time.
Haven't seen this before and it wasn't too bad. Did remind me of Gilligan's Island though. Well worth watching again. Thanks for posting it. Joe S
The beginning credits showing the Island looks the same.

Gilligan's Island before Gilligan's Island🏖🏝
Haha had the same thought
I was thinking the samething.👍🌴🐚
🍍
Same type humor all right.
Me too! 26 years before Gilligan’s…
Forget logic and just enjoy the movie! Amazing storm graphics BTW, esp for 1938.
Sounds like a meatier version of Gilligan's Island. Lol 😂😂😂
Entertainment, plain ole black and white fun. The sea plane was as big as a luxury train on the inside, must have had a nice bathtub, they all changed for dinner!
Interesting how as the plane is taking off people are still walking around in the cabin.
Turbulence ahead please stand up and walk around the plane
James Whale!! My favorite,!! Frankenstein, Bride of Frankenstein, and so many others!!
A good old fashioned south seas movie.
Underrated film by the great James Whale
Was waiting for it to turn into The Most Dangerous Game.
Ha-ha! Beauiful!

A very young Milburn Stone telephoning.
I bet Pan American Airways loved this movie.
It was a Boeing airplane.
>If you can't wait you could always watch the upload from 2021
It was a good watch, not much of a story really but entertaining.
Pretty good story line! I liked the blonde, she's got moxie and tells it like it is!
Nice movie, thanks CCC!

@10:18 they're flying past honolulu in a seaplane from california. they must have plenty of fuel.
Big fan of John Boles!
The only thing missing from the plane was Tom Hank and Wilson.
The set interiors make the plane look the size of the QE2.
Halleluja!? looking a late night when i was missing my husband.sweet as honey and good moral.old mama.🤔😥🤭🤗
Aha! Gilligan's Island! Oh, someone already said that.
Back then they really got into fortune telling, reading tarot cards, etc. A bunch of sorcerers and sorceress's, the whole lot of 'em.
At 11:43, their "approximate position is "N 22, W 143." That position is about 300 miles due EAST of Honolulu. So what are they doing, flying in circles or back to the mainland?
What a great movie it's a clean one lol! 😮😊❤😂
I just found out there is a color version of this movie. Everything is better in color. Wasn't to thrilled about the ending. Fell flat in my book.
That was pretty good but I was hoping they would get back.
I kept waiting for a polar bear to show up, followed by a smoke monster.
Not exactly "Adventures in Paradise" but, hey, who cares? Thanks for posting it.
The Plane, The Plane!
They just bust in on this man throwing coconuts and demanding resources off this man like a bunch of pirates.
Thank you 🙏🏻🍿🥤
Millions of Chinese were being murdered by Japan, but this movie sees people selling ammo to fight back as evil?
I know, I know, this was the comedic version of the original script for 'Five Came Back', right?
2:06 Dwight Frye
Yes,I thought that was Dwight Frey.
with Gilligan... the Skipper too... the millionaire and his wife...
Heh, heh! Best "Gilligan's Island" comment!
the professor an marianne
It's the nut RENFIELD as that first reporter!
Never ride in an airplane with square windows.
She’s going to have a nurvous breakdown , AND then she says , BOY WILL I ENJOY IT !
Servo: Stately Wayne Manor.😅
Por favor si fuera posible subir la película The Rain, de la novela de Somerset Maugham, con el gran actor José Ferrer
Almost as good as Gilligan's Island.
Is that Doc from Gunsmoke?
Why, yes. Yes it is!
Didn't recognize him. Thnx for pointing him out.
All I had to see was 'Gene Lockhart' and I'm there.
Stilted and full of stereotypes, but pretty good
Whadaya mean? It's LOADED with "Strong Independent "Women, isn't it?
Luxurious airplane, no seatbelts.
And a huge lavatory !
Is this the one with the dogs in giant shrew costumes? No? Okay, I’m in. [ducks]
😂😂😂 that film is hilarious! I've seen it a few times. 🌹
@@miapdx503 Iknowright? So great.
@@ParanoidGoblinoid The Killer Shrews, I think. 😏 a classic 🌹

That servant laughts to much, but the owner is right. These entitled jerks need to do some work for once. America is full of these types of crooks even in 1938. No doubt going back to the beginning.
Note: in those days (of so so ART-DECO) they had STEWARDS; afterward coming STEWARDesses.
B.noches Srs. C.C.C la peli se ve que es bonita , pero hay un pequeño detalle no se inglés no entiendo 😢😢😢 que pena 😏😏😏😏
❤❤❤
The plane floats, why jump out of it?
Clássico 🎥obg 👏🌹
Ah, the days before frisking and pat downs when it was possible to bring weapons and wads of money on an aeroplane. How about the size of that men's room!
was a great pic.
58:24 this is just about one of the stupidest things I've ever seen in any movie in my entire life.
thanks..
This has some similarities to the movie stage coach, or I should say stage coach was similar to this since it came out a year later.
Wimsicle , typical Hollywood .
How did Mr. Raskin Acquirer his Millions all While Office?
This movie is almost pre code in places.
No podrían poner en Latino Español como para nosotros. 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Que quieres? Hay la pelicula.
@@nedludd7622 quiero que le pongas en Latino Español , gracias😉😉😉
It's Gilligan's Island revisited with a twist
Forgetting this is twenty five years earlier.
Why the explosion of the plane 😅😅😅😅
@11:24 min. Oh, this is so funny. Seatbelts anyone?
“ i think we are going into a storm”. The weather started getting rough, the tiny plane was tossed.
Extra dry goods. Medical emergency supplies.
Genres listed should include comedy.
What a group of uninteresting boring passengers.
Whale got a bad rap in sarris book sarris was wrong about Kubrick too
LOST- 1938 .
The only thing worse than Harold Robert Buckley string of unlikely relationships, coincidences, and right on time deaths, and very unlikely conduct awful writing is the terrible direction and awful acting. Shame on the studio.
Dwight Frye!
A whale of a story even has milburn stone as doc.
I see what you did there…
no need for seatbelts!

The Creator God of the Judeo-Christian universe exists and has a name, His Name is above all names, His Name is Jesus of Nazareth.
my book of deaths twice
Because I had a dangerous illness in my intestines and unlike Joram, the Lord had compassion on me and did not let me die in that tortuous, painful and humiliating illness. His mercy is more beautiful than beauty and through his mercy I breathe and live.
It has also freed me from other illnesses such as mental, existential and spiritual as well.
He who humiliates himself does not despise
There is either Judeo or Christian, but not Judeo-Christian. You can't serve two Masters. Thank God the Father for your healing and Jesus is Lord!
Okay... I am intrigued
(interesting math 🧮
