It's a mistake scraping this ship. The rust is keeping the water out.

Ah yes, the Caine mutiny. I’m a movie star! It was in the scene where junior officers went to see the admiral. They painted a “34” on the bow so it looked like the Oriscany. Really it was the USS Kearsarge, just one of the carriers in Task force 77. I was one of several sailors running across the flight deck. Which reminds me. I never did get paid for my acting career.

Maybe Bogart’s greatest acting job. It’s one thing to play the stereotypical good guy all the time. A real good actor can play a variety of characters and make them believable. I read the book and saw the movie. Bogart was exceptional as Queeg. In fact the job portraying a person like Queeg, who neither a villain nor a hero, has to be one of the toughest acting jobs.
