Why remake a movie just to ruin it? It's like restoring a vintage Rolls-Royce and then pushing it over a cliff. The original 1953 film, "Dangerous Crossing," starring Jeanne Crain, was a neat, atmospheric little mystery. It was based on John Dickson Carr's short story "Cabin B-13," about a man who disappears on a honeymoon cruise, leaving no record of his existence and making his bride look like a madwoman. The best part of that movie was Carr's brilliantly crafted ending -- totally surprising but obvious in retrospect. And what did they do in "Treacherous Crossing"? They let the proverbial cat out of the bag in the middle of the movie! Steer clear of this voyage and get aboard with Jeanne Crain.
