[net.movies] Submarine Flicks List

knudsen (09/02/82)

Having been a submarine freak since junior high,
I'd like to compile a list of sub movies with year made,
nationality, major name actors if any, and short plot summary
or list of memorable incidents.  Mail me whatever and I will ultimately
post to this group.  Some titles I can remember are:
	Das Boot
	Run Silent, Run Deep
	The Enemy Below (shown in Germany as The Enemy Above, I heard)
	Mystery Submarine
	Operation Petticoat (involves nurses and a PINK sub)
I consider the last a legitimate sub flick, but not so sure
about Voyage to Bottom of Sea or Fantastic Voyage -- I mean
REAL subs with some hard realities.


Also, does anyone know of any TV station re-running the old
(mid-50's) "Silent Service" series?

	One excellent recent submarine movie was Ice Station Zebra.
	Don't remember the year, but it starred Rock Hudson, Patrick
	McGoohan, Ernest Borgnine, and Jim Brown.

One movie I remember is "Gray Lady Down" about the rescue operation
on a sunken sub.  One notable thing is that Christopher Reeve (Superman)
and Ned Beatty (also from Superman) were in it.
