Tripoli Action 1950 John Payne, Maureen O'Hara, Howard Da Silva

The U. S. Marine Corps hymn starts with"From the halls of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli", and this film's story purports to be the reason why, and is give or take a few incidents in this movie: It is 1805 and the Tripoli pirates have challenged America's right to freedom of the seas---all of them, anywhere---so United Stares warships were sent to that port to bottle up their fleet and set the riff-raff right concerning who could sail where. (History begins to suffer a bit along about this point.) A U. S. Marine unit, headed by Lieutenant O'Bannon, was sent to attack them from the rear. He organized his unit around Hamet, Pasha of Tripoli, in exile after being overthrown by his brother. In Hamet's court was Sheila D'Arneau, a diploma's daughter, who disguises herself as a dancing girl, and joins the group of eight U. S. Marines and Hamet supporters in their march across the Libyan desert. O'Bannon and Shelia argue all the way to Tripoli.

The Constitution was a three masted ship, designated a Frigate. In its glorious history, it was named by the Sailors that sailed her, "Old Ironsides". This was due to the oak planks that made her hull, were so tough, cannon fire would just bounce off her hull. I am a history nut, and avid model builder. I had a magnificent model I made on our mantle above the fireplace of her for many years. Full rigged.

Back in the good old times when movies where made to entertain and not to deliver "messages"

[@Frank-mm2yp]

This Grade B Hollywood "historical epic" was made during the Cold War and was seen in movie theaters around the world. The "message" was that all AMERICANS, especially US Marines, were "good guys" who would go anywhere to fight for Truth-Justice and the American Way. Just as the USA did in WWII (only 5 years in the past), Americans wanted to be friends with all "good people" because, deep down, they were "just like us", even in the North African desert. The other "message" was that in the 1950s Maureen O'Hara was Hot; especially in Technicolor.

The dialogue in these older movies is far superior to ANY movies made these days. God....what have we done to our country ?

[@thunderbird1921]

We've forgotten how to write movies, among other stuff. That's my biggest gripe with many modern films, the writing is AWFUL, and once you've seen these old classics, you can't help but notice it!

[@Marveryn]

part of the reason why the dialogue had many double mean or seem spicy at time was cause of censors. You couldn't flat out say some of the bedroom stuff you can get away with now so they often use double meaning that adult would pick up on but was clean enough censor didn't object. The other part is a lot of the script writing was still base from plays which needed dialogue to carry the film. As Movies shifted more and more toward big actions sequences and special effects plus the lack of censor penalizing for blunt speech, dialogue became more realistic. Things we lost as movie modernize are for example actor facial expressions. As most actor had some theater training big showy movement to and facial expressions to tell a story without words was slowly phased out for realistic mannerisms. Plus modern hollywood lost interesting faces and looks. It seem every major star look nearly the same and no one stand out from the pack that much just from their features. I could rant on but yeah hollywood have morph a lot after a 100 years of film making

And despite all the comments, the inaccuracies of the film, a recent tome pretty well spelt it out... the Marines never quite made it to Tripoli, Jefferson went on paying tribute under the table, and the Philadelphia (our newest warship) was surrendered, along with its crew to the Berbers. Wish I remembered the book title, came out around 2007, very good read and funny. Mostly from the Ambassador's diary.

[@iansneddon2956]

Paying tribute makes more sense than trying to root out the pirates permanently. To keep them from re-surging some ongoing investment in occupying the coastline would be required. But this would make the seas safe for American merchant shipping, and British and French and Spanish and Italian and any other nation that would not be paying a dime for the service. Ultimately, the pirates made too much of a nuisance of themselves and they were rooted out at the expense of the Royal Navy.
