An original Australian Daybill poster for the 1960 release of “Under Ten Flags”

An Italian-American war film directed by Duilio Coletti and starring Van Heflin, Charles Laughton and Mylène Demongeot.

Loosely based on actual events during World War II, the film depicts real-life German Captain Bernhard Rogge commanding the navy raider Atlantis, which from May 1940 to November 1941 sank 22 Allied merchant ships. Rogge was one of the few German flag rank officers who was not arrested by the Allies after the war, due to his conduct as a military officer. After eighteen months of successful raids, Atlantis was sunk on 22 November 1941 by the British cruiser Devonshire.
