San Demetrio London, Ealing, 1943, directed by Charles Frend, starred Walter Fitzgerald, Mervyn Johns, Ralph Michael, Robert Beatty, Charles Victor and others. The film was an account of the heroic feat of sixteen men from the merchant navy who brought home the stricken gasoline-laden tanker, the San Demetrio, across the Atlantic.

This picture hung in Sir Michael Balcon's office at Ealing Studios for many years.
