Featured review
Screened recently in national television in Australia, and on a Saturday afternoon so all 19 million of us could goggle at it in the daytime, the press release for the TV week magazine exclaimed: No Sunken treasure for Gilbert Roland, but oh boy, check Jane's sea Chest!.....now how could anyone miss that. Not ever seen in 3D here we have had to make do with that. Snazzy cossies and bubbling romance, this sensational lung stretcher cost as much as A STAR IS BORN but hasn't endured like Judy did. Jane is as gorgeous as ever and the film is fish tank pretty. Watch it and love it. No wonder poor RKO went bust too.
Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAt a promotional event, a young Jayne Mansfield was one of several swimmers participating in a underwater skit when the top of her bathing suit came off. Many believe that she let it happen on purpose for free publicity.
- GoofsAt the beginning of the film, Richard Egan's voice-over twice specifies that the gas in his SCUBA tank is "oxygen." His tanks contain compressed air, which is approximately 79% nitrogen and 21% oxygen. If they contained pure oxygen, the diver would likely experience oxygen toxicity and go into convulsions within a short period of time at about 20 feet, and even more quickly at deeper depths. But oxygen is the part of air that keeps us alive, and without wanting to give the audience a science lesson on oxygen/nitrogen ratios, calling it oxygen instead of air is natural. Also, his words were "... you'd sure eat up the oxygen..." and "... oxygen enough to stay down...," neither of which implies tanks of pure oxygen.
- Quotes
Johnny Gray: Men who live by sharks, get to live like them. You could almost smell the way that guy was thinking. We looked fat and he was hungry.
