QUESTION 4-Which John Ford-directed film depicts a perilous sea voyage from the West Indies to England aboard a British tramp steamer?

Correct Incorrect Inspired by Eugene O'Neill's "Sea Plays," the screenplay for the 1940 film The Long Voyage Home was adapted. John Ford's passion for sailing translated into this ode to a transatlantic journey from the West Indies to Boston and then on to England. Ford received two Best Picture nominations in the same year, one for Voyage and the other for John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath. Unfortunately, he lost both to Rebecca.
