Captures the dingy, dreary world people lived in WW2 and post-WW2 London. Attenborough masterful as the seemingly respectable and quietly spoken psychopath killing women for brief moments of depraved relief. I think the film has had cuts since it was first released.
Captures the desperation of soldiers trying to escape the beaches of Dunkirk, and the unacknowledged bravery of the people who rescued them at cost to their own lives and family members.
Widmark's character seems to be a desperate murderer, and after the wagon train massacre the teenagers who come back from their swim find him the only survivor and their only means of survival. In the subsequent scenes, we find out that everyone had it all wrong about him.
An outwardly capable and incisive Scene of Crime Investigator and Mortician. Who is only too human and ready to challenge premature assumptions, leading her to conflict with senior police, and members of her own family.
With the charming and amusing Cary Grant and young understudy, Tony Curtis. The story of a submarine damaged at it's Phillipine base by early Japanese aircraft is hastily repaired and sailed for further repairs and encounters adventures on the way. The overprivileged, spoiled brat of a lieutenant turns out to be the missions' saviour with his underhand ways of obtaining supplies and materials overcoming the lumbering bureaucracy of the US Navy's establishment. The name of the title derives from their picking up stranded American service women, and that they had to escape from a bomber raid, in pink primer paint.
