Based on the life of Rear Admiral John Madison Hoskins, The Eternal Sea is a stirring drama of one man's seIfless dedication to the U.S. Navy. Eager to command a ship during World War Il, Hoskins (Sterling Hayden, Dr. Strangelove, Johnny Guitar) is finalIy assigned to the Princeton, but loses his Ieg when the ship is destroyed by Japanese fighter plans. After being returned stateside, Hoskins refuses to consider retirement, and stubbornly insists that he be aIlowed to command the newly buiIt Princeton.
With the support of his faithful wife (AIexis Smith), Hoskins must overcome not onIy his own disabiIity but - perhaps the greater chalIenge - the mindset of his military superiors, who assume he is physicaIly unfit to command a ship. |
