Bitwa o ujście rzeki (1956)
The Battle of the River Plate
Próba odtworzenia polowania na niemieckiego "pancernika kieszokowege" Admirala Grafa Spee. 13 grudnia 1939 roku doszło do bitwy pomiędzy niemieckim pancernikiem a trzema krążownikami brytyjskimi : ciężkim Exeter i lekkimi Ajax i Achilles, w wyniku której niemiecki pancernik wszedł na redę portu Montewideo i dnia 17 grudnia został wysadzony przez własną załogę. Film przedstawia ostatnie dni przed bitwą oraz próbę odtworzenia samej bitwy. Coś dla miłośników marynistyki.
