H.M.S. Defiant
1962 · 101 MIN · IMDB 7.1 · 3,160 VOTES · DIR. Lewis Gilbert
Overview
Defiant's crew is part of a fleet-wide movement to present a petition of grievances to the Admiralty. Violence must be no part of it. The continual sadism of Defiant's first officer makes this difficult, and when the captain is disabled, the chance for violence increases.
