Out of Singapore

Noah Beery has been First Mate on three ships that have sunk. Nonetheless, theres no one else with a ticket, and so Frank Hall Crane hires him, despite his daughter, Miriam Seegar, being a passenger. Crane grows weaker and weaker. When they stop at the next port of call, Beery meets with the merchant whose cargo is nominally being carried, and with whom he conspires to split the insurance money for an empty hold... despite ex-lover Dorothy Burgess now being a lover.

It's a really cheap second feature, with some mediocre pacing, and little to recommend it except for Beery -- who sounds like Bluto in the Popeye cartoons -- and Miss Burgess; she wears a harem outfit and does a belly dance that marks this as a real pre-code movie. With little in the way of surprises, either in the plotting or performances, there isn't that much to recommend it, but at least it's only an hour.
