An old sea dog talks himself into a job on a World War 2 destroyer but works his men too hard.
Edward G Robinson is one of my favourite actors and I see his movies all too frequently. Once again, he is brilliant as the ageing naval officer who helps build a destroyer and then serves on it. Glenn Ford is unusually low key and the romantic storyline gets in the way somewhat. Overall though, a thoroughl enjoyable movie with a brilliant lead performance. 7/10
