They didn't know it but MGM made a sort of topical film with Pacific Rendezvous.
We had in fact broken the Japanese code around this time which was of course
was invaluable. But no one knew then.
Lee Bowman like every good sailor wants to get to sea especially after Pearl Harbor. But on a date Jean Rogers hears he wrote a book on code breaking and tells her uncle Stanley Ridges about him. He's impressed into the Navy's codebreaking group.
And there's the inevitable Axis spy ring operating and they have to be rounded up with spies in the most unlikely places. Rogers trying to be Myrna Loy to Bowman's Bill Powell and makes holy hash of all she touches. How did we win that war?
Pacific Rendezvous is a pleasant bit of cinema from MGM's B picture unit.
