This is a brand-new factory produced reissue of the classic British war film.
Digitally remastered. THE BATTLE OF THE RIVER PLATE tells of the pursuit of
the German battleship Graf Spee, one of the most gripping episodes of World
War 11. November 1939: crack pocket battleship Admiral Graf Spee patrols the
South Atlantic. Captained by Hans Langdorff (Peter Finch) one of Germany's
most brilliant naval officers-Graf Spee,with her superior speed,appears and
disappears,sinking ship after ship and threatening to cut off crucial Allied
supplies. But the net is tightening round the German Killer as the last ship
sunk by her managed to radio her position before she went down. Three British
cruisers,posing as a naval task force,are charged with setting the trap....
BATTLE OF THE RIVER PLATE is notable for it's amazing sea battles-made with
the cooperation of,among others,the Admiralty,Royal Navy and US Navy- and the
non-stereotypical depiction of characters on both sides of the war. Careful
digital restoration now ensures THE BATTLE OF THE RIVER PLATE can be seen in
it's full visual glory. Imported in Region 1 NTSC format. It will play on
your North American DVD player. S&H $2.50.00 in US--$3.50 into Canada.
