AKA 'Glory At Sea'.
In 1940, the Captain of an old Royal Navy destroyer struggles with his crew, as well as the Nazis.
Dramatised from a true wartime incident, this film has an excellent perfroamnce by Trevor Howard. Not much action formost of it and the shipboard lives of the men gets a bit tiresome after a while. The harbour attack at the end is quite good although the model work is surprisingly obvious.
