Plot synopsis
McMillen (Jon Hall) is cheated out of his winnings in a gambling club. The winnings were the last of his money, so he gets a job on a ship as the engineer. Tamara (Lisa Ferraday) rescues shipwrecked McMillen. While romance blossoms, the pair try to prevent a crook from selling her uncle’s priceless collection of antique jade.
Reception
The New York Daily News described the flick as "a preposterous affair" and noted Borgnine's role as a "Chinese villain" as unconvincing.[3]
