Presumably, your reference to Marlowe comes from Humphrey Bogart's portrayal of that character in other movies. You are probably referring to "The African Queen".
The story is set at the beginning WWI. Humphrey Bogart, playing Charlie Allnut, the hard-drinking captain of the African Queen and Katharine Hepburn, playing Rose Sayer, a missionary whose brother had just been killed by the Germans, traveled up the Congo on The African Queen to launch a torpedo against the Königin Luise, a German gunboat, in order to allow the British forces to advance.
