A young Irishman comes up with an unusual plan to get the money to emigrate to Tahiti.
Based on the novel by Kenneth Reddin, this is one of the least distinguished films produced by Ealing during its golden age. Part of the problem lies in the unbearable whimsy of the plot, in which customs official Robert Beatty's dreams of living on a South Sea island are brought within touching distance by rich dipsomaniac Stanley Holloway. However, the real problem is the failure of Charles Crichton and his design team to re-create the atmosphere of postwar Dublin. Georges Auric's sloppy score doesn't help much either.
