Plymouth Adventure

• OSCAR WINNER:
• Best Special Effects

In 1620, a group of religious outcasts boarded the Mayflower in England and set sail for the New World, where they founded a tiny wilderness outpost that was the genesis for what would become the United States of America. "Plymouth Adventure" is their thrilling story, a tale of hardship and devotion, of storms, hunger and disease faced and defied.

Screen great Spencer Tracy portrays the Mayflower’s skipper, whose clenched heart is opened by his love for a gentle passenger (Gene Tierney) and the unfaltering courage of the pilgrims.

With Clarence Brown’s forthright direction, Miklos Rozsa’s hymn-tinged score and the Academy Award winning special effects that thrust the viewer into twisting, towering seas await all who experience this memorable 1952 dramatic adventure.
