Very pleased with delivery speed, the quality of the box, the tape and the audio is still perfect.
Rating: - This is not typical Alan Ladd performance
This is a movie about a Young man who has a Naval Reseverist and a Quaker and is called up for duty onboard a Destroyer at the beginning of World War 2. The biggest play of the movie is how Alan Ladd reacts to the way that the crew treats him when he shows his Quaker background at various times when a life or death decision is called for. There is also a love story sub-plot going on but it doesn't seem to fit real well with the main plot.
Overall this movie doesn't make much sense when you watch it. For each of the scenes of the Destoryer being in action the only thing that seems to tie them together is the characters being shown and the ship being shown. Also the director and producer seem to have two major climaxes which is confusing. Overall, this seems more like a cheesy training film produced by the Navy from around that time and just happens to start Alan Ladd. This is defeninatly not one of his best movies. This is better for a rental instead of a purchase.
Besides the Alan Ladd this movies has all your typical stock characters from World War 2 flicks from the 50's, James Whitmore William Bendix, Keenan Wynn, etc. Also look for Joey Bishop of Rat Pack fame playing a typical sailor Sterotype.
