Seven Were Saved

When a botched hijacking forces a military plane to crash-land in the shark-infested waters of the South China Sea, the passengers take refuge in a tiny lifeboat and battle dehydration, heavy rains — and the man responsible for their predicament. William H. Pine’s World War II drama features Richard Loo as the would-be hijacker, a Japanese colonel facing war crimes charges in the Philippines. Richard Denning and Catherine Craig also star.
