hey there
just wanted you to know
YES we did film this in ITALY in a german sub
it was also the same sun as in U571
which infact was just a great big tin pot in a field in the film studios
the whole sub is built on springs so when it shook it was really shaking
it wasnt inside because the movement from when it shakes would make anything around it shake too
so has to free stand in a field
all the sea scenes were filmed in malta
just a few details for you
by the way i played Callum
david jason saved my life
kind of him wasnt it

Mark, thanks for the info. I still haven't got round to watching it yet, but hopefully will make time to watch it in the next week or so.

Cheers.

This is the first I've heard that they adapted that book. I remember reading it in 1988. It was written by Simpson & Burger, the guys who also wrote "Thin Air", a thriller novel based on "The Philadelphia Experiment", but one that they admitted was fictionalized.

Was the movie any good?

Did you read this thread as well?

Not bad but I don't know how it compared to the book.
