Some great and quirky pictures of Shoreham harbour in the 1950's but the film itself lacked energy, interest and tension. The first half of the film was pleasant enough, with a English brother and sister played respectively by Vincent Ball and Naomi Chance, who together with pulp fiction crime writer Peter Duncan, played by William Lundigan, endeavour to solve a mystery of an abandoned boat which they wish to buy. Their quest to discover the owners of the boat leads them to the local police, and then after a tip off, they set off for France. It's all very improbable, and despite the quaint scenes of small French fishing ports, the film meanders along without any real action or purpose. The film limps along as our threesome go from one location to another in their search to resolve the mystery, which in itself becomes a tiresome and dull exercise. Overall it's a pedestrian film with a low key ending. The film can only be recommended for the quaint 1950's quayside locations, but otherwise not much else of note to see.
