Dam, even Sailor of the King was a remake.

Gosh don't John Mills and Jimmy Hanley look young! I've recently been watching Sir John in Young at Heart on KZbin with Megs Jenkins who was in Tiger Bay with him. Young at Heart is from 1980 to 82 and a really enjoyable TV series. I had never heard of Forever England or Sailor of the King, which I will look up. Sir John was in one of my favourite films This Happy Bread and Jimmy Hanley was in another favourite The Blue Lamp. Modern films don''t interest me at all. Thanks so much for posting this, I'm really enjoying it.

It’s people forgetting what we were and believing lies . We CAN get it back 😊it will mean a lot of hard work and faith. I wish everybody good luck.

Thank you for this showing of the film. Good luck finding the original English language version.

I think one of the ships was HMS York.

Memento Audare Semper

What an arrogant nation

joe gargery proves that a good heart will always stand one in better stead than any degree of good breeding.

How wrong we were

There was a remake of this movie where the king awarded both the Captain and Brown.

It's a challenge!! . Us Brits should learn other lingos.

Excellent movie- I like the ending of the remake better, but this older film is great. I would think someone in England would restore anything Mills was in- all gems. TY!

Need english language version. I watched it on tv as a kid.

Back when Britain worked as a nation.

My late father was serving on board The Valiant at the time, when he saw the film he was really angry they did .not abandon ship but were moved to the upper decks and the mines exploded beneath them! He also remarked that the Italian submariners were blonde.He refused the chance to be at the premiere of the film!

They don't make them like that any more. Fab film.

All speaking good English as we should be proud of

Only thing is the uniforms. They wouldn't be in whites. They be in blacks or black and whites

Americans tried to steal this bit of history too.

I dont think any honda motorbike bolts have 13mm bolt heads 🙂

Pip and Joe really had something special. Reminds me of me and my (fatherless) 8yo step grandson. I'm his father, grandpa, and best friend all rolled into one. The next scene with Pip, Joe, and Biddie is also very heartwarming.

The German ship was actually cruiser HMS Curacoa, which collided with RMS Queen Mary and sank in 1942.

I think you’ll find the subs were not English - they were Italian!! Okay joke over -actually my dad was in this movie ,playing the Chief Petty Officer (I think) in the anchor Cableroom scene - I remember him when I was a child aged 8, returning from Italy having been there for threeweeks filming ( he brought me a very fancy geometry drawing set as a present ) the film was believed lost for some time but it was shown some years ago at the NFT (English version -I was at the screening )

a great movie ,pitty they didnt bring the boys service back,or a national service.👍👍👍👍

I suggest replacing the cam chain before 50k miles. These chains do stretch which retards the cams. Tensioner wont help with that. I installed a DID quiet chain which was half a link shorter than the worn out factory original. The DID is heavier duty and fits right in. I then installed a double dot tensioner and im very happy with the quiet result.

New to SAAB, noticed ABS chirping at slow 15mph breaking. Seems this is the problem....

Cool movie! This reminds me of one level in the really hard (buggy but still good) game "Hidden & Dangerous 2 + Sabre Squadron", now known as combined game under the name "Hidden & Dangerous 2: Courage Under Fire", available on GOG. In one level you have to ride those mini subs and attach some mines, steal an Enigma machine and quit w/o setting off the alarm of the 2nd ship. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJ7Mm4aNpM6pn7s

A great movie, though I prefer the alternate ending in Sailor of the King with Michael Rennie, where AB Seaman Brown and the Captain are awaiting decorations by the King. With Jeffrey Hunter as Signalman Andrew 'Canada' Brown, Michael Rennie as Lieutenant / Captain Richard Saville, Peter van Eyck as Kapitän Ludwig von Falk, Wendy Hiller as Lucinda Bentley, Bernard Lee as Petty Officer Wheatley, Victor Maddern as Signalman Willy Earnshaw, and John Horsley as Commander John WillisPatrick. This was also released as 'Single-Handed'. As found on Wikipedia: First ending The landing party searches the island for Brown as the camera pans to his apparently dead body. The action then cuts to London and an honours investiture, where Saville receives a knighthood for his actions. Brown was found dead by the landing party and was awarded a Victoria Cross posthumously, presented to his mother. She is revealed to be the former Lucinda Bentley, who had moved to Canada after her tryst with Saville. She and Saville meet before she goes to accept her son's medal. [I have yet to see the last part where Savill and Lucinda Bentley meet]. Second ending The action cuts straight from the German survivor to an honours investiture in London, where Brown, who has, in this version, survived to receive his VC, meets Saville. Brown tells Saville that his English mother - to whom he owes his joining the navy - is living in Montreal and unable to make it to the ceremony (though whether or not she is Lucinda is not revealed). Saville informs Brown that he will be his signaller on their next posting on the North Atlantic convoy routes. They will both probably get a chance to see his mother in Canada. The pair then stand to attention as the national anthem plays.

Oh! I saw 'Sailor of the King' just a month ago and totally missed the thing about the young hero being the son of the cruiser flotilla captain. That version did not bring the two together very well.

Saved to watch later.

i wish this was available in english been looking for years

You didn’t let us hear a cold start with the new one. Also, how many miles are on the engine?

If I could speak Italian, maybe I would watch more than 5 minutes.

I don't believe John Mills was ever in what one could call a bad movie. This one was excellent. However, I did like the ending better in the 1953 version. Thank you for posting. I have seen this one 3 or 4 times and the 1953 one several times. Thank you for posting.

yay

And now England is run by immigrants wanting more illegal immigrants into England to demise English people and destroy England. Pissy anorak the fake immigrant pm and sadick kunt the evil London mayor are both immigrants who hate the English because of British rule in India many years ago.

heart,s of OAK ROYAL NAVY AMEN

Is there meant to be some sort of cap over the end of the CCT. When you remove do so gingerly as not to knock it off into the engine. Plus im no mechanic thats why im sourcing info but i dont think you need to find tdc.

This film was remade in 1953 and released as The Sailor of the King, also known as Brown on Resolution.

thats clutch basket noise mostly

Eventually id expect a time when the chain would have stretched a little too far and you would need tensioner and chain, but a great way to buy some time!

The Germans could have turned the boat around and no longer presented the working parties to fire.

An excellent film with a very young John Mills. Sailor of the crown is another one worth watching from the 1950's with a similar story when a British Sailor escapes from the sickbay of a German ship called the 'Blucher' or something like that. The sailor in that also climbed a cliff with a rifle and fired on the German sailors carrying out repairs on the ship which had anchored in a cove. The ending was different to this film though as the sailor survived.

Absolute gold. ❤️ Pip and Joe relationship the highlight of the tale for me. ‘Ever the best of friends’

Amazing how dubbing damages a film! Clearly, the lips are not in sync with Italian, and the dubbing voices lack the distinctive diction of John Mills, Robert Shaw and the rest. The subtitled translation is very poor, too... hurts to see an English film with dodgy subtlitles in English

An excellent British movie. Later stolen by the Yanks. No surprise there

Prevod

My dad was 19 on a minesweeper in North Africa coast , his sister ship got torpedoed , he had to rescue those in water etc ..

Och, what a sad ending! I was hoping Alber😅t would be reunited with his mum AND his dad. John Mills was a great actor. One of my favs.

Just by the sound!, the new CCT is much smoother, regular rpm...👍
