The Princess Comes Across

Internet Movie Database Movie Reviews

Based on the novel A Halálkabin (“Death Cab”) by Louis Lucien Rogger

So there’s an ocean liner, and on board are:

  • A Brooklyn actress pretending to be a Swedish princess (Carole Lombard)
  • A dorky but adorable bandleader (Fred MacMurray)
  • A blackmailer, and his victims
  • An escaped killer
  • Five international police detectives

And of course their paths intertwine, and hijinks ensue. This was funny and kind of charming, especially if you like Lombard or MacMurray.
