Contrabbando sul mediterraneo

The main reason I wanted to see this film was Robert Taylor Quite frankly, I did not expect this to be much of a movie because it was a film made on back end of his career. Wow, was I pleasantly surprised. First, I thought the story was interesting and for the time in which it was made had a good depth of psychology in it. The title of the film is a clearly a metaphor for Taylor's character, so someone was thinking on a very sophisticated level. I really like that kind of intelligence in a film. In terms of performance, both Taylor and Malone were superb, demonstrating a wide emotional range with good screen chemistry. I really liked seeing them together. Also a big surprise with his acting skill was Martin Gable. I only knew him from "What's My Line". If you are a Robert Taylor fan I do recommend this movie. Yes, he looks older than his actual age but he still had "it", including that wonderful resonant voice. It is so very tragic that he died so young.
