Around the Horn in a Square Rigger Synopsis
AROUND THE HORN IN A SQUARE RIGGER was filmed by noted sailor, author and photographer Alan Villiers documenting the record-breaking 83-day voyage of the 1902 barque Parma from Australia to England in the 1933 Grain Race. Villiers writes, "We wanted to make a picture that would capture some of the stirring beauty of these ships... some glimmer of understanding of the attraction which they hold over those who sail in them."
Down the Mississippi Synopsis
The simple story is about two siblings, little brother Bud and big sister Susie. After they've been reading "Huckleberry Finn" they dream of adventures on the Mississippi River.
"Around the Horn in a Square Rigger" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Down the Mississippi" offers its own unique cult appeal.
