Say, Thanks R.O!
The film can be viewed on YOUTUBE, where there are a few full -play versions. The sub jockey here at our humble home watching the first portion of the movie will instantly see that the German Type IX U-Boat is actually a facelift of an American boat, in this case, the BALAO-class USS TILEFISH [SS-307 ] which saw distinguished service in the Pacific Theater around Honshus ''Hit Parade'' in '44-45. She was sold to the Venezuelan Navy in the 1960s and this is how she went ''German'', the disguise assisted by dazzle-paint and a full German-speaking cast, for ''Murphys War''.
