There is a line in the commentary by David Farrar, the RN Commander Jeff Napier where he talks about Captain Karl Ehrlich's (John Wayne) options. The line goes something like "to the East the Indian Ocean and to the West the vast Pacific Ocean". Only a septic could have written that line, because from Sydney the Pacific Ocean is East!
Another interesting "fact" which I haven't confirmed, is footage of the steamer (which I believe is actually a former US liberty ship) the Erganstrass may actually appear in the 1992 Harrison Ford movie Patriot Games.

Hi Dianaa
Not a bad movie, enjoyable but I couldn't help but think it a bit of a propoganda film, some nice scenery and of course and of course that "Line" Duhh. Who could not watch a JW film, some good support acting and as always the hard nut Nazi to mix up the plot. At the end the question is, Did John Wayne and Lana Turner make it.
Cheers
Tony
