White Cargo (1942)
With Hedy Lamarr, Walter Pidgeon, Bramwell Fletcher, Clyde Cook, Frank Morgan, Henry O'Neill, Oscar Polk, Reginald Owen
Directed by Richard Thorpe
White Cargo is a 1942 American drama film starring Hedy Lamarr and Walter Pidgeon, and directed by Richard Thorpe. Released by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, it is based on the 1923 London and Broadway hit play by Leon Gordon, which was in turn adapted from the 1912 novel Hell's Playground by Ida Vera Simonton. The play had already been made into a British part-talkie, also titled White Cargo, with Maurice Evans in 1930. The 1942 film, unlike the play, begins in what was then the present-day, before unfolding in flashback.
