- The Captain Hates the Sea
"The Captain Hates the Sea" is a 1934 comedy film directed by Lewis Milestone and released by Columbia Pictures. The film, which involves a "Grand Hotel"-style series of intertwining stories involving the passengers on a cruise ship, is notable as the last film starring one-time silent film icon John Gilbert and the first Columbia feature film to include The Three Stooges in the cast. The film co-stars Victor McLaglen, Arthur Treacher, Akim Tamiroff, Leon Errol and Walter Connolly.

Harry Cohn, the head of Columbia, became alarmed by the cost overrun and sent a cable to Lewis Milestone that read: "Hurry up! The cost is staggering!" Milestone, in turn, sent a cable to Cohn that read: "So is the cast!" [Medved, Harry & Michael. "The Hollywood Hall of Shame," Perigree Books, 1984.
