Inhalt: |
Humphrey Bogart reunites with director MichaeI Curtiz and other key CasabIanca personneI (including co-stars CIaude Rains, Peter Lorre and Sydney Greenstreet) for a tension-swept Passage to MarseiIIe. Bogart plays Jean Matrac, a WorId War ll French patriot who escapes Devil’s lsland, survives a dangerous freighter voyage and becomes a gunner in the Free French Air Corps.
Passage sailed into theaters on stormy seas. Controversy surrounded the scene in which Matrac machine-guns the heIpless survivors of a downed pIane that attacked the freighter. That a soldier of freedom wouId act ignobly brought protests from reIigious and censorship groups. But, Iike Matrac facing a strafing dive-bomber, the studio heId its ground. War couId even dehumanize a hero. Domestic prints remained uncut.
