Night Boat to Dublin is a 1946 British thriller film directed and co-written by Lawrence Huntington. It stars Robert Newton, Raymond Lovell, Guy Middleton, Muriel Pavlow and Herbert Lom.

Plot

During the Second World War, Professor Hansen, a refugee Swedish scientist in Britain, is unwittingly passing information on the atomic bomb to Germany through the neutral Irish Free State. British intelligence attempts to break this link.[2]

Two intelligence officers, Captain Grant and Captain Hunter, travel incognito to Dublin; suspicion falls on lawyer Paul Faber. Grant manages to get a clerical job in Faber's London office, using a false identity. He allows himself to be exposed as an ex-army officer who's gone AWOL, and allows himself to be blackmailed by Faber into doing a number of illegal jobs. These include a marriage of convenience to Marion, a young Austrian girl who is desperate to acquire British nationality.

Eventually, the trail leads Grant, Hunter and the police to a manor house on the coast of Devon, where Hansen is being hidden.

Grant and Marion, now married, decide to stay together.
