Broken Journey (1948)


Gainsborough Pictures
Directed by Ken Annakin and Michael C. Chorlton
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Turner Classic Movies)

Predictable yarn of group of people stranded on a mountaintop after their plane crashes. They constantly bicker, steal food, refuse to help one another and generally act like selfish idiots. I can't think of another film with a cast of such unlikeable characters. Eventually some of them take action, but only when they have no other choice. The location shooting on a snowy glacier is about the only saving grace.
