Description
THE BATTLE OF THE RIVER PLATE (aka PURSUIT OF THE GRAF SPEE) (1956) — DVD | John Gregson | Peter Finch | Anthony Quayle | Powell and Pressburger | NR
Three British cruisers. One German pocket battleship. The first great naval battle of WWII.
In December 1939 three Royal Navy cruisers — outgunned but not outfought — engage the German pocket battleship Admiral Graf Spee off the coast of Uruguay in the first major naval engagement of WWII. The subsequent political and human drama of the Graf Spee’s last hours in Montevideo harbour is told with Powell and Pressburger’s characteristic intelligence and visual authority. Peter Finch plays the Graf Spee’s captain with commanding authority.
The German captain was a decent man in an impossible situation. The film understood that.
