I'm watching this movie again. The mix of post WWII submarine footage, the low skull-dugary, nefarious drama is quite enthralling.

Highly recommended ASW. Howard Hughes was said to be obsessed with it in his last years.

I read the book first and like it. Then I watched the movie, think it is quite different but like it anyway, as a seperate peice of creation. Ever since Guns of Navarone, Alistair MacLean has become a major selling point in movies. Producers would associate their movies with his name for marketing reasons alone. Sometime in the 1980s this no longer holds true.
