Troubled Waters is a 1936 British mystery film directed by Albert Parker and starring James Mason, Virginia Cherrill, Alastair Sim, Raymond Lovell and Sam Wilkinson.[1] It was made at Wembley Studios as a quota quickie by the British subsidiary of Fox Film.[2]
A government agent exposes smugglers in a British town with a dwindling spring mineral water business.[3]
TV Guide gave the film two out of four stars, and wrote, "The action is sustained throughout and Mason, as usual, is very good." This was not in response to the film's actual premiere but at least twenty years later, as the first TV Guide was not published until 1953.[4]
