What happens
Der letzte Appell ist ein aufgrund des Kriegsausbruchs 1939 unvollendet gebliebenes, deutsches See- und Weltkriegs-Filmdrama mit propagandistischen Untertönen von Max W. Kimmich. Die Hauptrollen spielen Emil Jannings und Werner Krauß. Dem zum Ruhm der deutschen Marine bei ihrem Kriegseinsatz 1914 gegen England gestalteten Film liegt das Bühnenstück „Fahrt nach Orplid“ (1936) von Bernd Hofmann zugrunde. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
