About This Movie

So, 'This Was the Mary' is a neat little documentary from 1968 that clocks in at just 18 minutes. It captures the last Transatlantic voyage of the Queen Mary, which is a fascinating subject, to be honest. The film has a nostalgic vibe, really evokes that sense of adventure and grandeur associated with ocean liners. Joan Crawford's narration adds this unique layer, her voice kind of guiding you through the experience. It's pretty cool watching the practical effects of the ship's journey, and the pacing feels just right for a short film. You get glimpses of the ship's history and atmosphere, making it distinctive in its own way. It’s definitely an interesting snapshot of its time, especially for collectors who appreciate maritime history.
