Most of this film was acted in Malta. I can recognise every scene, I was born in Malta and live in Malta and in my childhood I roamed on every bit of Maltese land shown in this film.

This is not the average war film, it is a sobering film showing the brutal reality of the physical conflicts plus the destructiveness of the inner conflicts and resulting mental illness and breakdown of relationships.

James Franciscus, 1970. The production/ cinematography is superb. When they were still trying to make the images clearer, instead of the current trend of making every shot murky, dark, and fuzzy so they don’t have to produce good imagery. This reminds me of the early bond films in many ways.

It's cool to see the immense old fortifications of Malta that were built by the Knights of St. John.

I found the gun battle on the island ludicrous. The way they were waving those sub-machine guns around you would think they thought they were magic wands. If they were twenty feet away they would be lucky to hit a barn door. Instead they were 50 feet or more. You can fire from the hip, but it must be a stable hold. Recoil alone would knock the gun into the air from the way they manoeuvred. Did they really have an armourer and adviser for this film? Whats with the model boats they used in some of the scenes? They obviously did it on the cheap.

The radio controlled glide bombs were top secret during the war. Dropped from a bomber out of range of ship then remote controlled to it's target. One glide bomb could sink a ship. When first used the allies didn't realize what happened

[stevenrussell]

The E boat was bigger and better armed then our PT boats, the Germans made a magnificent but deadly fighting machine in these death boats.

When you chop a movie down, you f*** up a good movie!

I like the way everyone points loaded guns at each other, and uses pistols as pointers. Almost like none of them had any firearms training. Great upload. Worth the watch.

Enjoyed this war movie.Good cast, plenty of action and beautiful scenery around the coast of Malta. That was a dangerous mission to undertake but they accomplished it brilliantly.Thanks for screening
❤

The type of movies I grew up on as a kid. For the time they were amazing~Man, imagine, all those model makers employed. The British were always portrayed as upper class sophistication and chivalry with duty to country and fellow man.... The sheer amount of snow white cloth by the truck load... wow.

Thanks for posting this good movie! According to the closing credits, it was actually filmed in Malta. I like that scenic realism. The personal troubles of the characters was also realistic. The movie makers also didn't sugar coat the battle scenes. Characters got hurt and killed on both sides. This movie was well done, but without any unneeded extra stuff.😊 My eyes are very light sensitive, so I have the brightness on my tablet set to about halfway. This is usually enough, but I should have made it brighter for this movie, as the nighttime sea scenes were too dark on the halfway setting. At least I didn't have to watch it on my smart phone's tiny screen. That thing died at the beginning of February. After discussing things with my computer geek brother, I got a 10 inch tablet with one of those rugged kid covers. We both feel that anything smaller wouldn't be as nice a viewing size, and anything bigger would be awkward and clunky to handle. It's great for watching any kind of movie, including old war movies like this one. Alright, alright, for those who may be curious, the kid cover is a nice tropical blue.😂

When I was a kid, my uncle, a ships gunner in the Navy, in WWII, would sometimes get drunk and talk about war at sea. He would sometimes cry. He brought back a rifle from the war. A British 303.

A LOT OF TRUTH IN THESE OLD MOVIES LOVE IT THANK YOU

[igotatan]

A very under-rated war film. Thanks for posting.

[michaelvanderlinde]

I saw this as a kid mid 70s...thanks for the memories.

It's Unbelievable that a movie about the Naval battles that raged during Guadalcanal operation has Never been made. Many major battles were fought between the U.S. Navy and the IJN navy in the Solomon Islands 1942/43 Savage Nightly battles were fought trying to stop the "Tokyo Express" from resupplying the Japanese on Guadalcanal. In fact 4 U.S. Sailors died for every one Marine, during that fighting.

[RedOctober]

This was made when movies had class. You can tell because the romance scenes have oboe music as background. Not that cheap "bow chicka bow wow" crap in 70s movies.

[paulredinger]

If they only have a couple boats seaworthy out of 9 they should have plenty of extra sailors for the boats. Even with casualties.

These special effects made me wonder when Godzilla would make it's appearance.
