Widower Tommy Tyler (John Mills) is a surly sailor who makes his money off of simple con games while raising his plucky daughter, Spring (Hayley Mills). But two things change: Firstly, Tommy decides to act upon the fact that he has a map that could lead to a sunken treasure. Then, newcomer William Ashton (James MacArthur) arrives, and he catches Spring's eye as the group seeks out that fortune and fights off Tommy's old rivals, who also want to get their hands on the loot.

Blobbo X @Blobbo May 24 Not much going for movie. But Blobbo reminded of why had crush on spunky Haley MIlls. See more Steve D @RT35616104 07/26/2023 Really lame despite the talent involved. See more 12/10/2014 Sickly-sweet as many of Hayley Mills films made in the US were in the 1960's. See more 09/19/2012 I saw this randomly a while back and really enjoyed it. Wish they would release it on DVD. See more 12/20/2009 A delightful adventure at sea, in search of treasure (gold and not only). A story of innocence, full of freshness, both funny and touching.
