Luxury Liner - 1933 **

 
'Luxury Liner' could be seen as a poor man's 'Grand Hotel', but doesn't have nearly as much class or glamour to live up to it's name. The story of a group of people who's lives entwine and change during the course of the trip is a rather weak one. George Brent isn't too bad as the jilted husband with a violent streak, and Alice White is rather cute as Milli, the girl who desperately wants to be up on the 1st class deck, but instead is stuck in 3rd class.
The film is has a rather weak anti-climax at the end, and I'm not sure the director thought it through properly. But never mind, there are definitely worse films.
