| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about A Night To Remember (1958) |
|---|
A NIGHT TO REMEMBER is a british movie directed by Roy Ward Baker in 1958. The picture won the Golden Globe in the "Best English-Language Foreign Film" category.
This is a british version of the Titanic disaster. Few special effects, a lot of secondary characters and the Atlantic Ocean as quiet as a swimming pool.
--Daniel Staebler, Resident Scholar
