(55,824 posts)I am a WWII history buff.
And I am a sucker for any submarine movie.
Outstanding performances in this movie.

(101 posts)The casting of the two principal actors Mitchum, and Jurgens, works really well, and the story is compelling.
Another great film in the submarine/war genre is Run Silent, Run Deep with Clark Gable (1958).

But maybe I should relent and watch it.
Wow that is pretty neat how they filmed it.

(55,824 posts)I don't usually watch comedies but since they were about submarines I had to watch them.
I liked them both so much I watched them twice which I rarely do.
