Review of Devil and the Deep

This is some yarn of a U-boat drama being sunken and how to get out of it alive - all except one. Tallulah Bankhead is the star, and she is alone among a lot of men, some of them being Cary Grant and Gary Cooper. Cary Grant has the first turn, and when he is discharged by his U-boat commander Charles Laughton for lack of efficiency, Gary Cooper proves more efficient, immediately embarking on a love affair with Tallulah, which Cary Grant never did. Nevertheless, Gary Cooper is also discharged for lack of efficiency when the U-boat has sunk by sabotage by the commander himself, who suffers from a brain tumour - only his wife Tallulah knew about this before the crisis on board. We never see Cary Grant again, but Gary Cooper does not give up that easily. Not even a billiard cue can stop him.
