Henry St. James (Alec Guinness - The Ladykillers, The Lavender Hill Mob) believes he has the perfect set up. As the captain of an international ferry going between Gibraltar and Morocco, his job is pleasant and easy. His life could even be described as boring but for one fact: he's managing two lives - and women - on either end of the ferry line. When he ports in Gibraltar, his wife Maud (Celia Johnson - Brief Encounter) has dinner ready for him at their cosy home. When in Morocco, he enjoys dining out and dancing the bolero with fiery sexpot wife Nita (Yvonne De Carlo - The Ten Commandments).
Things of course can't be this good for too long and soon this carefree captain's paradise starts to unravel as the women want to break out of their assigned roles.
Featuring a sparkling, witty script and a wonderful ensemble with Alec Guinness at the top of his comic form, the battle of the sexes has never been so much fun., Henry St. James (Alec Guinness - The Ladykillers, The Lavender Hill Mob) believes he has the perfect set up.
