Jason survivors first, or will they ar
rive at the same time? The answer
is that they will arrive at the same
time and that they will battle it
out in a surface struggle. History,
of course, already has recorded the
score and in favor of the British,
but this does not destroy the dra-
matte value of the climax Of ''The
Raider"
It is part of Jacksons cleverness
in constructing his story that he has
reduced the actual battle to skeletal
proportions, between a trio of men
on the gundeck of the Leander and
a single guncrew Of the surfaced u
boat.
In the employment of actual serv-
ice personnel, instead of profession
ais, Jackson's Target for Tonight"
gave the impression that the Royal
Air Force was teeming with acting
talent. These performers were such
'naturals" before the camera that
1t was difficult to accept the fact
they were nonprofessionals.
"The Raider" at the Little clears
all that up. It, too, makes use of
servicemen in telling its story and
the merchant seamen show them
selves every bit as skilled as the
Raj members who preceded them
before Jackson's cameras.
The English, it seems, are all
natural actors.
