The Deep Six | Alan Ladd | Classic Drama Film

Description:

The Deep Six - Called to active duty during World War II, U.S. Navy Reserve lieutenant Alec Austin struggles to do his military duties while observing his Quaker beliefs, to the dismay of his comrades. The Deep Six (1958) Director: Rudolph Maté Writers: John Twist, Harry Brown, Martin Rackin Stars: Alan Ladd, Dianne Foster, William Bendix Genre: Drama, War Country: United States Language: English Release Date: March 9, 1958 (United Kingdom) Filming Location: The Lodge at Pebble Beach, California, USA Synopsis: The conflict between duty and conscience is explored in this WWII drama. Alan Ladd stars as Naval gunnery sergeant Alec Austin, a Quaker whose sincere pacifist sentiments do not sit well with his crew members. When he refuses to fire upon an unidentified plane, the word spreads that Austin cannot be relied upon in battle (never mind that the plane turns out to be one of ours). Reviews: Very good late Alan Ladd film. The best part of the movie was the scenes involving Lieutenant Alec Austin ( Ladd) and Frenchy Shapiro ( William Bendix) Bendix, who appeared in two of Ladd's best films The Glass Key and The Blue. Dahllia, and once again they worked well. You can tell Ladd enjoyed making the film, he smiled a lot ( except for The Badlanders rare for a Ladd film). One scene stood out. Ladd drawing Bendix's picture ( it was for his 8 year old daughter),. It was a very different kind of a scene that you see from Ladd, and it shows he was not always the tough guy/action hero ( although that is what Ladd fans enjoyed best). I give it 8/10 stars. Again a very good late Alan Ladd film. - written by "januszlvii" on IMDb.com Also Known As (AKA): (original title) The Deep Six Australia The Deep Six Austria Durchbruch bei Morgenrot Brazil Batalha Contra o Medo Canada The Deep Six(English) Denmark Destroyer patrulje Finland Hyökkäys merellä Finland Hyökkäys mereltä(video box title) France Commando du Pacifique(Video Title) France En patrouille Greece Katadromikon V.17: Apostoli kolaseos(reissue title) Greece To katadromikon X-17 skorpa tin kolasi(transliterated title) Italy Acque profonde Norway Angrep ved daggry Portugal Missão no Alto Mar Romania Şase fathomi adâncime Spain La profundidad del mar Sweden Attack över havet Turkey Cesur Kaptan(Turkish) United States The Deep Six West Germany Durchbruch bei Morgenrot World-wide Deep 6(English, informal short title) World-wide Deep Six(English, informal short title) World-wide The Deep 6(English, alternative spelling) ···················································································· ✘ Website: FOLLOW US! ✘ Twitter - SUPPORT US! ✘ Membership: MORE MOVIES! ► Film Noir: ► Classic Movies: ► All Playlists: #classicmovies #filmnoir #colorizedmovies ···················································································· COPYRIGHT: All of the films published by us are legally licensed.
