Classic Movies: The Wreck of the Mary Deare (1959) (Reblog)

It's probably the saddest and most heart-breaking movie, with an awesome soundtrack, about a shipwreck. But the Titanic isn't the only movie about a shipwreck. What about the Mary Deare?

I heart classic movies.

• True stories about shipwrecks or ships lost at sea always tantalize you. You just got to know what happened! However, if you never really quite know all the truth, you can always make something up!

• The Wreck of the Mary Deare is a classic movie that stars two powerhouse American actors, Gary Cooper (1901 - 1961) and Charlton Heston (1923 - 2008). Based on a novel by Ralph Hammond Innes.
