Titanic. The name of this famous ship (or infamous, depending on the way you look at history) reverberates throughout the century since she sank in 1912. Her sinking was the instigator of many changes, developments and innovations not least the genesis of the US Coast Guard and SOLAS. Among the innovations of how to detect obstructions at sea, like an iceberg, was one conceived by a Canadian born radio engineer, Reginald Fessenden working as a consultant to the Submarine Signal Company to enhance their system of underwater bells for shore-based stations, buoys, and light ships and for sound detection on ships.
Robert Wise's screen adaptation of the novel by Commander Edward L. Beach.
Commander Richardson (Clark Gable) is the only survivor when his submarine is sunk by the Japanese cruiser 'Bongo Pete'. Assigned a new command, Richardson becomes obsessed with revenge, ignoring orders to avoid the Japanese Bongo Straits and drilling his crew in manoeuvres designed to destroy Bongo Pete.
