Troubled Waters

James Mason is teamed up once again with Virginia Cherill whom he appeared with in his debut film, 'Late Extra'. He plays a government agent (John Merriman) who makes a few enquiries and follows leads. Cherill plays June Elkhardt.

Directed by Albert Parker, Troubled Waters leans on a strong ensemble — Virginia Cherrill, James Mason, Alastair Sim — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about mystery titles of 1936.
