Science Commandos!"; "From Top Secret Royal Air Force and Admiralty Files!"; about the group of British scientists racing to develop the first radar system) starring Ralph Richardson, Raymond Huntley, Sir Richard Attenborough (very young in this, his 5th movie!), Marjorie Rhodes, John Laurie, Ernest Jay, and David Tomlinson. Note that director Peter Ustinov had served in World War II from 1942 to 1946, and right after he was released, he directed this movie at age 25 (his first, he was sort of an English Orson Welles in that respect!). The movie was not released in the U.S. at that time, but this movie was released in the U.S. in 1952 (obviously, it was released in the U.S. because of the science fiction [sci-fi] craze), and they tried to sell this movie in that fashion, advertising it as "more startling than the Flying Saucer"!
