The Captain Hates the Sea (1934)

Numerous flawed characters cross paths on a cruise ship. There's a story involving a detective, a couple of swindlers and some stolen bonds, but that's just something to pass the time while everybody's on board. The Three Stooges appear briefly as the ship's orchestra, and John Gilbert, in his last movie, plays an alcoholic with knowing conviction.
