The Last Voyage

This morning Lisa and I watched "The Last Voyage" a 1960 Robert Stack film about the sinking of a passenger liner.I saw it as a kid on TV and loved it, and after rewatching it 30 years later I can say: I had great taste. 

What makes the film extra special is that the crew *actually* set a defunct passenger liner on fire and flooded it during filming. None of the "special effects" are effects, it's really a ship on its way to the bottom of sea, and that lends a brutal urgency to the cast. Watch it!
