"That's a strange color to be painting government property!" 
Who doesn't love Cary Grant and Tony Curtis? As one of my favorites, it's humorous and a good feel good, family film. Even the kids love "the movie with the pink sub!" In their struggle to "get back in the war" the crew of the Sea Tiger find themselves in a number of predicaments.

One Great Line Among Many
One of the very funny lines comes from an officer watching through binoculars as Nick Holden brings a boat load of nurses back to the sub from a bombed island: "Wow -- now that's what I call scavenging!" The officer is played by Dick Sargent, the second Darin on "Bewitched."
Matt Sherman comments that he's a little concerned about Lt. Holden's influence and recommends a little less "Wow" and a little more "Tsk Tsk."

Submarine war adventure with comedy
I always did love Cary Grant and Tony Curtis - put them together in this movie and you have a something to laugh about - crusing around the pacific ocean in war time - on board of all things a pink submarime and what they got up to in getting her ready just to keep her afloat - here to the Seatiger and all the crew who rode in her - or as some would say here to all submariners may they keep our oceans free and safe.
