Recensione in evidenza
This film begins with a man by the name of "Matt Gordon" (Fred MacMurray) returning to the city of Singapore not long after the end of World War 2. The main reason for his return is due to the fact that he had hidden a large cache of illegal pearls and he has come to take ownership of them again. Along with that, there was a young woman named "Linda Grahame" (Ava Gardner) who he had to leave behind when the Japanese attacked the city and--even though he believes she was killed during the war--he feels the need to find out. One way or the other. Be that as it may, no sooner does he arrive in Singapore then he is met by a high-ranking member of law enforcement named "Deputy Commissioner Hewitt" (Richard Haydn) who has a professional interest in recovering the illegal pearls. Likewise, a criminal figure by the name of "Mr. Maribus" (Thomas Gomez) who is equally interested in possessing these pearls as well. Yet as much as Matt wants these pearls, his priorities change when he meets Linda again. The problem is, she professes to have never met him. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that this was an interesting movie, more or less, with certain similarities to "Casablanca" being somewhat obvious. To that effect, although both Fred MacMurray and Ava Gardner put in decent performances, I didn't really see much chemistry between them. At least, nothing like Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman had in the previously mentioned film. Even so, I enjoyed this movie for the most part and I have rated it accordingly. Slightly above average.
