The plot revolves around a photographer's mate who is dismayed by his assignment - to make a movie about a submarine crew in action. The crew helps to make things unpleasant. The episode was directed by Sobey Martin and written by Tony Barrett, and features Rear Admiral Thomas M. Dykers as host. The cast includes Grant Richards, Stacy Harris, Douglas Odney, John Morley, Peter Leeds, Chris Alcaide, Paul Harber, Robert Bice Dean Melang and Irving Steinberg. The fictitious USS Seashark was not an actual U.S. Navy submarine. Motion picture films don't last forever; many have already been lost or destroyed. For almost two decades, we've worked to collect, scan and preserve the world as it was captured on 35mm, 16mm and 8mm movies -- including home movies, industrial films, and other non-fiction. If you have endangered films you'd like to have scanned, or wish to donate celluloid to Periscope Film so that we can share them with the world, we'd love to hear from you.
