CHINA SEAS


 "CHINA SEAS" --- (1935) --- 

MY THOUGHTS: I just watched this film for the first time. I liked it a great deal. I loved seeing Clark Gable and Jean Harlow onscreen together and was pleasantly surprised to see a young Rosalind Russell (who looked just beautiful) among the cast! It was an interesting "pirate adventure," albeit a different type of one.
SYNOPSIS: "Dashing captain Alan Gaskell is attempting to lead a more subdued life with a new love interest, aristocrat Sybil Barclay, when his ship is taken over by pirates while sailing the South Pacific. Alan discovers that his predicament involves his volatile former girlfriend, Dolly Portland, and her new beau, the shifty Jamesy MacArdle. This tense scenario leads to unexpected sparks between Alan and Dolly."
STARRING: Clark Gable, Rosalind Russell, Jean Harlow and Wallace Beery.
SCREENPLAY: James Kevin McGuinness and Jules Furthman; Based on "China Seas" - 1931 novel by Crosbie Garstin.
DIRECTOR: Tay Garnett
