ABANDON SHIP (1957)

14 of these survivors must be cast adrift! Which will the Captain choose?

After the massive luxury liner Crescent Star sinks into the ocean, the ship's officer (Tyrone Power) must command a rickety lifeboat, built for only nine, that is stuffed with 20 desperate and injured passengers. As a hurricane approaches, and the many wounded passengers struggle for life, difficult life and death decisions must be made about who will remain on the boat and who must be cast to the sea in order to give others the chance to survive.
