Saw a movie today on TCM called "hell below" about an american sub in the med.
Wow! this movie was not half bad at all! had john huston in it,an of all people jimmy durante.http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0024100/
had an actual surplus ww1 destroyer sunk in the filming,dam impressive too,dam thing was cut in half that scene alone was worth it.

compared to U571 this thing was an epic,an filimed in 1933 to boot.Definetly worth watching if you have'nt seen it,it even has the actor who was winne the pooh's voice.His scene where he....never mind don't wann spoil it for you but that scene was great too.
hell it even has a fighting (boxing) kangaroo in it:rotfl:

I can't find anywhere to rent or buy this movie on dvd.

I have become so modern I don't even have a working vcr anymore.

I guess I will keep my eye out for it on TCM. I pretty much only watch AMC and TCM anyway heh.
