Run Silent Run Deep (1958)
Wednesday, September 21st, 2005A fleet boat of the Navy, with most of her fighting capability intact, and you’d take her back to Pearl! I don’t believe it!

Run Silent Run Deep is a crackerjack sub picture that gets a lot of the specific details of life on a WWII U.S. fleet submarine right while the general events of the plot are pure Hollywood. The dialog and procedures aboard the submarine are spot on, thanks to generous cooperation from the U.S. Navy.
