Based on a book by novelist Neville Shite (aka N S Norway). this 1959 film is a real downer. It takes place mostly in post nuclear war Australia, where American submarine captain Gregpory Peck, he and his crew survivors of the war, seek refuge. Peck falls in love with local lush Ava Gardner and they romance throughout the film. Anthony Perkins also stars as a young Aussie husband and the couple has a baby. The film's best moments are when the sub visits a devestated America. Shot in wide screen black and white. Depressing but characteristic of its times.
