effects, Don Knotts plays scrawny bookkeeper Henry Limpet, who longs to
help the U.S. after the outbreak of World War II. He becomes ... read more  depressed
after being turned down by the Navy, particularly after his pal George
(Jack Weston) is accepted. When Henry takes a walk on the Coney Island
pier with his wife Bessie (Carole Cook), he falls into the water and is
transformed into a fish, complete with his reading spectacles. Henry
finally gets to help the war effort by helping to track down Nazi U
boats for the Navy. Andrew Duggan and Larry Keating play the admirals
who spearhead the secret mission involving the transformed Henry.
Longtime Disney production associate John Rose was the producer of this
film, and the influence of the animation is evident.
