swittle Jul 2018 2:21pm, 29 Jul 2018 49,720 posts	0 swittle I found 'The Cruel Sea' gripping when I first saw it many years ago. 'Das Boot' mixes dread with authenticity - as far as I can tell. A different type of film entirely but with a submariners' theme is 'Hunt For Red October', with Connery * not* being 007. I like the superpower themes.
