The Battle of the River Plate 1956 Online Full Movie

The Pursuit of the Graf Spee Online Full Movie

Plot Summary

In the early months of the Second World War, Nazi Germany’s Kriegsmarine sends out merchant raiders to attack Allied shipping. The British Royal Navy responds with hunting groups whose mission is to stop these attacks. In time, the German battleship Admiral Graf Spee is discovered in the Atlantic, just off South America, by a trio of British cruisers. With its speed and destructive firepower, Graf Spee is a formidable menace.

Attack and Retreat

The British go straight into attack, closing swiftly to minimise the Graf Spee’s substantial advantage in gun range. The British use their superior numbers to split her fire by attacking from different directions. Graf Spee, under Captain Hans Langsdorff, inflicts much damage on her foes. However, one of the British cruisers, HMS Exeter, is particularly hard hit and is forced to retire to the Falklands for repair.

Refuge in Montevideo

The Graf Spee sustains damage and takes refuge in the neutral port of Montevideo, Uruguay, for repairs. The British demand she leave within 24 hours, but lobby for an extension once they recognise reinforcements can arrive. Langsdorff, fooled by fake reports of Royal Navy warships, scuttles his ship as she leaves the port, saving lives and earning British praise.
