1940, Movie, NR, 95 mins

starstarstarstar
German battleship picks on a small English cruiser in this story of life aboard a ship doing convoy duty in the North Sea. A friendly battle squadron comes upon the fighting and chases the intruder away. Picture noted as the first from Britain in WW II to depict a war subject on screen with realism and a plausible plot. Director Tennyson tries for comic relief at times but fails with overzealous treatment. Technical finesse secures a spot for this film in production archives... read more leave a comment
