Re: RE: ship with unexplode torpedo

I found this page by searching for information on a movie that I saw as a kid that involved just this scenario. The drama centered on the attempt to disarm the torpedo and the fact that the torpedo couldn't be pushed out as it was plugging the hole in the ship. I agree that the actual chances for such an encounter are nigh impossible, but it was just a movie, so anything is possible...
Any clue as to what the movie I am looking for was called? Best guess on a date would be early '60s, but possibly earlier. B&W, if I recall correctly - But it was a long time ago.
