Cinema, Film, TV, Drama | | English term or phrase: great on runs | The film is about smugglers. Sailors are searching for crew, checking a list of their possible choices and commenting on them. This is a fragment of their dialogue:
"I like Jake Ford. Horrible chef, but he's great on runs. Luke's a fucking drunk. The newlywed. He's not great on runs,
but I've known him a long time." |

| | Polish translation:przydaje się na szmuglu | Explanation:
"Smuggling run" to po prostu rejs przemytniczy... Ale oczywiście bohaterowie filmu tak tego nie określą.
Nie mam źródeł dotyczących gwary przemytnicznej, w razie czego można jeszcze bardziej odejść od oryginału, np. "Beznadziejny kuk, ale przydaje się na robocie. ... Luke ... Nie ma z niego pożytku na morzu, ale znam go od dawna" itp. |
