A. B. TURNS FILM STAR
An ordinary able seaman, Billy White, is the screen's newest star, writes Reg Whitley, "Daily Mirror Film Critic.
He makes his highly success- twenty-minute documentary film made by the Crown Film Unit.
Acted entirely by a cast of actual seamen-they found Billy White aboard a ship returned from China--it is a real-life drama of a convoy.
Has His Revenge
a
Billy joins ship which is mortally hit, and is rescued by lifeboat "I'll get my own back,' he says.
So he joins another ship, takes up a gunnery course, makes a perilous voyage through a mine- field and then spots a U-boat.
There is a crash of guns-and Nipper, A.B., has his revenge.
A simple story of our gallant seamen, but with more genuine thrills than
many a full-length feature film.
