Desc: The Silver Fleet: Directed by Vernon Sewell, Gordon Wellesley. With Ralph Richardson, Googie Withers, Esmond Knight, Beresford Egan. Jaap van Leyden (Sir Ralph Richardson) is in charge of a shipyard in newly occupied Holland. At first he collaborates with the Germans because it is the easiest course to follow. Later, a child's rhyme reminds him of his patriotic duty, but how best to resist the Germans without endangering his wife and fellow workers?
