Long Voyage Home, The
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 delivered this compelling, lyrical look at men at sea that playwright Eugene O’Neill considered his favorite of all his filmed works.
Nominated for six Academy Awards including Best Picture, The Long Voyage Home is a journey to remember.
