The Enemy Below movie plot

2022-04-09 08:01
In the South Atlantic during World War II, Captain Thomas Müller (Robert Mitchum) begins a pursuit when the American destroyer USS Haynes uses radar to track the signal of a German submarine. Thomas Müller was the captain of the freighter, but was torpedoed and sunk as the captain of the Haines, with many recruits on board.
German Captain Steinberg (Ked Jurgis) is also a good ship fighter. He was ordered to merge with the raider to retrieve the British code, so he has been sticking to the route, but Thomas Müller saw it and followed him.
Thomas Müller was afraid that he would be surrounded by the German fleet instead of missing the ammunition, so he bombarded with depth charge every hour to wait for reinforcements to arrive. The German submarine was forced to the deep seabed in order to escape the pursuit. Due to the constant bombardment of the American ships, the German crew could not bear it. Captain Shi used a march to boost morale, which was even more bombarded by the US sonar detection. Haines was also hit hard, and Thomas Müller pretended to abandon the ship to lure the German submarine to the surface so that the submarine could collide with the bombardment of the submarine.

    The cross montage of the first fight was not very satisfactory at first, but it became more and more exciting. The two sides are located on the upper and lower sides of the sea. This is a duel in which the enemy cannot be seen. The two sides can only rely on sonar and conjecture to construct each other's portraits. As a businessman, Mueller turned to be a destroyer captain, alluding to the depression of the World War II economy in the 50s, and the need for the United States to resist pressure from Europe and the socialist bloc. Although the two sides suffered casualties, the reconciliation at the end also implied that the focus of the US economic confrontation shifted from Europe to the Soviet Union, which is of practical significance.

    I just watched the nearly 5-hour uncut version of "Attack from the Bottom of the Sea". Although it is the same theme of World War II, the latter is completely from the perspective of a submarine, unlike the former, which is a road-oriented submarine and a destroyer. The old films at the end of the decade basically maintained an objective and neutral attitude, and did not deliberately vilify and beautify the two sides. A comprehensive understanding is called anti-submarine warfare, a good naval battle film, and it is worth the high score of nearly 8 points.

The Enemy Below quotes

  • 'Heinie' Schwaffer: I don't see how we could have missed at that close range.

    Von Stolberg: We shouldn't have. This American captain is no amateur. Well, neither am I.

  • Doctor: Captain Murrell oughtn't to be here at all. He's as weak as a kitten. A man that gets his ship torpedoed and spends 25 days on a raft in the North Atlantic oughtn't to have to hit the ball again with only a few days in the hospital. I guess there aren't enough commanding officers to go around. Well, at least they gave him an easy ship.

    Lt. Bonelli: Huh! Boy, easy's no word for it. Listen, he'd get more rest on this boat...

    Lieutenant Ware: Ship!

    Lt. Bonelli: Ship, boat, what's the difference? He'd still get more rest here than he would if he were in a feather bed. Me, I'd like something to happen once in a while.

    Lieutenant Ware: If the Navy ever gets a load of this salty crew in battle, they'll send us all back to boot camp. I'll look so ridiculous with my head shaved.
