Mutiny is a 1952 American Technicolor adventure film directed by Edward Dmytryk and starring Mark Stevens, Angela Lansbury and Patric Knowles.

The picture was produced by the King Brothers Productions and based on a story by Hollister Noble; the two parties had previously collaborated on Drums in the Deep South.

However, early on the journey to France, Redlegs lowers Hook over the side of the ship in order to eavesdrop outside the window of the Captain's quarters.

Realizing that there will be gold coming on board, Hook and Redlegs immediately plot mutiny and count on Waldridge to go along with them to captain the ship just like the old days.

As additional motivation, she arrived on board assuming Waldridge was Captain of the ship and is indignant to learn that he is merely serving as Marshall's First Officer expressing that such lower status is unbecoming of him and of her own ambitions.

After evading one British Man-o-war (during which Waldridge's life is saved by Marshall after having been dragged overboard by a rope attached to a cannon) it's smooth sailing toward the Bahamas.

Unfortunately, after building so elaborately to stress the patriotic yen of Stevens and his daring in setting out with a lightly-armed boat to get the French gold, the story falls to pieces.
