Has anyone ever tried to set your sub on the sea floor in this sim?

Heck I'm not even sure it's possible, but I was thinking it would be pretty cool...

Say your surfaced and take a sounding at get 50 m deep ... (wow right on huh)

Anyway can you dive to say 49 meters level off, then dive slowly and "set her down easy" on the bottom?

I think I got this idea from an older WWII movie, I can't remember hardly anything from it, but I do remember it was about an American sub that sneaks into a harbor past some anti-sub nets by going along with a surface ship right under him....

SO, I guess there are two questions on the table, 1) can you "set her down" and 2) What the heck is the name of that movie?
