Director Robert Aldrich, one year before his post-modern Noir masterpiece Kiss Me, Deadly (1955), did his best with this atmospheric China Seas melodrama. Should chanteuse Frenesie (Marion Carr) stay glued to her weak-kneed but handsome husband (Patric Knowles) or wise up and take what tough but reliable Irish soldier of fortune Callahan (Dan Duryea) has to offer? The answer comes only after sterling character actors Gene Lockhart (evil mastermind), Nigel Bruce (colonial governor), Douglas Dumbrille (military cop) and once-handsome Reginald Denny (ditto) squabble and planify to restore order. Bonus: lovely brogue-wielding Arthur Shields, younger brother of icon Barry Fitzgerald, as the hydrogen bomb expert whose kidnap fuels the intrigue. Bad guys vs. good with the sublime, sweet-hearted, tough-tongued Duryea playing both ends against the middle. His face like carved rare roast beef, his hair slicked back, eternal glint in his eye, Duryea wriggles through sewers, sprints around enemy strongholds, and handles grenades with the best of 'em.—Ernie Bakeswell

Years later when Jason is a young man (James Stewart), he and his father get into a fight when Jason acts rudely while they are on a backwoods circuit tour. Jason leaves to study medicine in Virginia. He constantly asks his parents for money, which they are only able to provide by selling their possessions, which they do without complaint. Mary writes Jason to tell him that Ethan is dying, but Jason does not return in time before Ethan passes away. Jason's letters to his mother become less frequent and stop altogether when the Civil War begins and Jason is called to service. In desperation and believing Jason must be dead, Mary writes to President Abraham Lincoln (John Carradine) to ask for information on where his grave is located.
