Across to Singapore

William Nigh, MGM, 1928. Ramon Novarro and Joan Crawford in a South Seas triangle with Ernest Torrence as the older ship's captain. Joel Shore comes home to find his brother Mark missing and Finch (the mate) spinning a story that will not hold. Silent romantic drama, about eighty minutes on the Commons print Nigh signed. Crawford is still early-MGM; Novarro does the earnest lead.
