SAMUEL FULLER, OPUS 7
**** 1954. Written and directed by Samuel Fuller. One nomination for the Academy awards (Best Special Effects). Capt. Adam Jones, accompanied by two scientists, must find an island in the North Pacific ocean where Chinese are believed to build an atomic bomb. I love the extravaganza of the cinema of Samuel Fuller, Who else could have imagined a love scene between Richard Widmark and Bella Darvi in a submarine resting on the bottom of the ocean ? In a red light in order to conserve electricity and unable to speak because of the lack of oxygen ? This is cinema at its best. Highly recommended.
