The merchant ship Glencairn rolls and shivers in the black North Atlantic. On board, her anxious crewmen search the sky for German planes and hope they’ll survive The Long Voyage Home. Director John Ford and screenwriter Dudley Nichols adapted delivered this compelling, lyrical look at men at sea that O’Neill considered his favorite of all his filmed works.

This film could have easily been nominated for so many Oscars, but it is simply outdated in today's time. There are possibly unnecessarily long scenes that ultimately don't even show what they were originally intended to. Men who have pretty much nothing going on in their lives and are no longer capable of properly communicating with each other, even though they have no other choice.
