The Blue Peter (1955)
Director: Wolf Rilla
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Basically a new recruits army drama transposed to an Outward Bound camp for sea cadets, with nervy Korean vet Moore subsuming his own problems beneath those of his young charges, including Fowler and Newley. Flatly directed by the man who sounds more like a Japanese movie monster; acted with apparent conviction by Moore, who himself subsequently directed several Catholic-backed documentaries.Author: PT
