Vanderdecker imagines that he is The Flying Dutchman, condemned by God for blaspheming during a storm to roam the seas in a phantom ship and to reach port only once every seven years. His only salvation is in finding a woman who will be faithful to him. If he finds such a woman the curse will be lifted. While the burgomaster is telling the story, a stranger comes to the inn. He falls in love with Melissa, but is blind to Zoe, who recognizes him as The Flying Dutchman. Melissa promises to be faithful and sends her former fianc\u00e9 on a sea voyage from which she hopes he will never return. When Melissa cannot keep her promise, Zoe, who is revealed as Philip Vanderdecker\u0027s wife, declares her love and saves The Flying Dutchman just as he is about to embark on another seven-year voyage.","wins":0,"nominations":0,"casts":[{"name":"Lawson Butt","code":"nm0125228","characters":"Philip Vanderdecker"},{"name":"Nola Luxford","code":"nm0230875","characters":"Melissa"},{"name":"Ella Hall","code":"nm0355550","characters":"Zoe"},{"name":"Edward Coxen","code":"nm0185300","characters":"Robert"},{"name":"Walter Law","code":"nm0492403","characters":"Peter Van Dorn"}],"budget":null,"lifetimeGross":null,"openingWeekendGross":null,"worldwideGross":null,"keywords":[{"text":"legend"},{"text":"sailing"},{"text":"ghost"},{"text":"based on opera"},{"text":"folklore"}],"production":[{"id":"co0142231","text":"Robertson-Cole Pictures Corporation"}],"prestigiousAwardSummary":null,"moreLikeThisTitles":[{"code":"tt17042606","title":"The Flying Dutchman"}]}
