synopsis
One of the forerunners of the disaster films to follow, this movie deals more with the tragedy as a character study. Using four short vignettes, three depressing and one a tension-breaking lighthearted story of the petty rivalries and romances in a traveling orchestra--this movie tells how a train disaster can place petty problems into perspective and either solve them or make them moot.
