Due out today in the U.S. (I don't know if this applies elsewhere) is the second volume of the collected films of Humphrey Bogart; aside from the classic "Maltese Falcon" (in a 3 disc presentation), the collection includes the film "Action in the North Atlantic", a 1943 film about a convoy fighting off U-boat attacks on the way from Halifax to Murmansk. Bogart stars as the First Officer of a Liberty ship with Raymond Massey as tha captain. There are some of the usual, laughable Hollywood conceptions of U-boats, but the film is interesting nonetheless.
