''We Dive at Dawn'' is a 1943 war film directed by Anthony Asquith, starring John Mills and Eric Portman as Royal Navy submariners in the Second World War. It was written by Val Valentine and J. B. Williams with uncredited assistance from Frank Launder. It was produced by Edward Black. The film's sets were designed by Walter Murton. ==Plot== Lieutenant Taylor (John Mills) and the rest of the crew of the submarine ''Sea Tiger'' are given a week's leave after an unsuccessful patrol. Hobson (Eric Portman) goes home to save his marriage, while a reluctant Corrigan (Niall MacGinnis) heads off to his wedding. Then the crew are called back to duty, much to Corrigan's relief, though he later has second thoughts. ''Sea Tiger'' is assigned the top secret mission of sinking Nazi Germany's new battleship, the ''Brandenburg'', before she enters the Kiel Canal to begin sea trials in the Baltic Sea. On their way, the submarine picks up three shot-down Luftwaffe pilots from a rescue buoy. When the submarine enters a minefield, an airman panics and reveals that the ''Brandenburg'' is further ahead than believed. Taylor decides to take a desperate gamble and enter the German-controlled Baltic in pursuit. When the ''Brandenburg'' is spotted, ''Sea Tiger'' fires all its torpedoes, then dives to evade German destroyers dropping depth charges. By expelling oil and other debris, Taylor fools the Germans into believing that the submarine has sunk. They leave, but ''Sea Tiger'' no longer has enough fuel to return to England. Taylor decides to have his crew abandon ship near a Danish island. Hobson, a former merchant seaman who speaks German and knows the port on the island, persuades Taylor to let him go ashore in one of the airmen's uniforms to find oil. He succeeds. ''Sea Tiger'' refuels while Hobson and other crewmen hold off the German garrison. When they return to base, the crew hear they sank the ''Brandenburg''. Waiting for them are Corrigan's fiancée and Hobson's wife and son. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「We Dive at Dawn」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
