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.
