Note that Alfred Hitchcock was famous for having cameo roles in his movies, but because this movie had no other characters other than the lifeboat survivors, he could not appear in the usual way (but he included a scene where a floating newspaper is shown that has his picture on it)! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this movie was released in England during their massive paper shortages, and we have seen English posters that were printed on the back of other older posters (sometimes on just pieces of them). In the case of lobby cards, it appears they reused some "recycled" heavyweight paper stock (of very differing quality), and they had "Non Sensitised Paper" printed in the bottom right. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: good to very good. The cards are printed on an unusual "Non Sensitised Paper" . The card with Cronyn close up with the woman has many defects in the middle and a few of the other cards have some fairly minor smudges and stains. Learn More about condition grades
