So there's this ship full of dead people.

[trof]

About a dozen of them.
The ship's steward knows they're all dead.
So do the couple who committed suicide, because...well...they had PLANNED to die.

The rest of them, the ones who were killed in the bomb blast in wartime London, don't know they're dead.

The suicide couple ask the steward where the ship's going and he tells them "To heaven...and to hell. It's all the same place, really."

This is one weird flick.

1. Is the ship's steward dead?

:shrug:

[trof]

3. I think he was more like an "angel"(?)

Had to leave and didn't see the end.

2. It sounds like they are headed for Mayport Florida.

It was heaven to leave and hell to be there.
