## Synopsis

Pacific Liner is a 1939 American action/adventure film directed by Lew Landers. The film stars Victor McLaglen, Chester Morris and Wendy Barrie. Pacific Liner is primarily set in the engineering section of the vessel, where a stowaway has infected the crew with cholera. While the passengers remain oblivious, the ship's doctor (Morris) and nurse (Barrie) work to control the infection and heal their patients while the engineer (McLaglen)—who scoffs at "bugs"—keeps the stokers at their jobs filling the ship's boilers with coal to make the best time to San Francisco.
