"Battle Stations"???? More like boring stations. 25mins in and I'm out.
1:21:04. That car is a bit late for this movie.The continuity supervisor missed this one.
Quite a strange movie, from many particular angles. Some of it might B 'cuz of the morale situation on board the Franklin herself.
Got a few fresh ship images
Very g00d
So Captain Bligh is fiction. I think the Captain of this ship needs to read up on history. No excuse for ignorance. Apart from that, this was a mighty strong movie. My last ship was an aircraft carrier. RIP all sailors who go down the deep for a final resting place. God Bless you all!
Amazing but sad for the 2300 who never made it back home. Poor loves.π’
I have never seen this movie before, but I have enjoyed watching it. My father was on a British Aircraft carrier and I know it's a film we would have watched together. Good acting and enjoyed Richard Boone as an approachable captain. Thanks for posting βββββπ€
the movie Wings made before 1940, A real classic !!
I would like to see In Harms Way starring John Wayne Kirk Douglas
Captain Bligh was the real deal. He became vice admiral. Born 1754 died . 1817 nothing fictitious about this fella
Good to see this movie again. One continuity is the brief scene at 1:01:10 of the Japanese aircraft with a torpedo suddenly attacking dropping bombs. Must of pinched the footage from a Japanese propaganda film?
This is about the USS Franklin and it's crew with actual footage of the ship
fastest gun alive with Glen Ford
Bill Bendix @ sea….I remember his TV series "The Life of Riley" from the mid-1950's. That was quite boring too.
Pork Chop hill is a great film
"The Purple Heart" would be a great addition.
Can you shoe "This Park is Mine" starring Tommy Lee Jones? Thank you. π
Terrific movie! I don't usually like war pics, but this was excellent. I love these old onesπβ€οΈ
That was a great prayer. β€
