U-571 movie plot

2021-12-13 08:01
In April 1942, during World War II, the largest naval battle in history was underway in the Atlantic Ocean. German Reich adopted the "wolf pack" tactics and dispatched a large number of U-shaped submarines to rampant activities in the North Atlantic waters. Many Allied Forces ships carrying strategic materials were sunk by German submarines on the east coast of the United States, but the United States Navy was unable to decipher its radio. The communication code does not pose much threat to the German submarine.
The American submarine S-33, commanded by Captain Hash and Major Cournan, was ordered by the commander of the fleet and set sail in secret. Their "luggage" was a lot of wooden boxes, but the crew did not know what was inside. It wasn't until S-33 sailed into the deep sea that the mission of this trip gradually became clear: S-33 will become a "Trojan horse", and these boxes will disguise it as a Nazi U-shaped submarine. They will merge with another stranded German submarine to seize the cipher machine on board, and Allied Forces can use it to stop the Nazi "wolves" from attacking.
The 9-person team risked their deaths and forcibly boarded the German U-571 submarine to capture the code transmitter. According to the original plan, they would destroy the U-shaped submarine and bring the captives back to the United States without the enemy's awareness. Unexpectedly, something happened, but they were trapped in the enemy's submarine. He was rushed by German reinforcements and blew up the American submarine in response. The 9-man squad was forced to fight back on the heavily damaged U-571. Unexpectedly, the German destroyer with stronger firepower would ensued. There is only one torpedo on the U-571. It is full of unfamiliar German how to control the instrument. The submarine trapped in the 100-meter deep sea is always torn apart by the water pressure, and the depth of the water is thrown by the German destroyer. charge . In this battle, there is not much time to carry out a series of hunts on the seabed. In the face of this dangerous waters and submarines that do not know how to drive, the fate of these ordinary people and the success of the mission can only rely on mutual trust and intuition.

    "Greyhound" is a destroyer's perspective. This is a submarine's perspective. It is interesting to compare. Those who are interested can mix and edit a "Tom Hanks Sea Battle Matthew McConaughey". The problem of this is the problem of the anti-German drama. ,too fake

    I remember watching it with my dad before. The second time (maybe the Nth time) was in the master bedroom of the old house. My dad insisted that it was a movie I had never seen, but I actually watched it together. Many times. He is really really cute

U-571 quotes

  • Lt. Commander Mike Dahlgren: You're a first rate X.O., Andy. A damn good submariner. I know the men like you.

    Lieutenant Andrew Tyler: I'd give my life for any one of them, sir.

    Lt. Commander Mike Dahlgren: I know you would. I'm not questioning your bravery. The question is: what about their lives? You and Mr. Emmett are good friends. You went to the Academy together. Would you be willing to sacrifice his life? Or what about some of the younger enlisted men? I know a lot of those guys look up to you like a big brother. You willing to lay their lives on the line?

    [Tyler hesitates to speak]

    Lt. Commander Mike Dahlgren: You see? you hesitate. But as a captain, you can't. You have to act. If you don't, you put the entire crew at risk. Now that's the job. It's not a science. You have to be able to make hard decisions based on imperfect information. Asking men to carry out orders that may result in their deaths. And if you're wrong, you suffer the consequences. If you're not prepared to make those decisions, without pause, without reflection, then you've got no business being a submarine captain.

  • Lieutenant Andrew Tyler: [whispering] Tank, you alive back there?

    Seaman Charles 'Tank' Clemens: Yes, sir.

    Lieutenant Andrew Tyler: Good. Port ahead two-thirds.

    Seaman Charles 'Tank' Clemens: Port ahead two-thirds. Aye, sir.

    Lieutenant Andrew Tyler: [pulls out paper] Tank... can you fix the stern tube?

    Seaman Charles 'Tank' Clemens: I don't know, Mr. Tyler.

    Lieutenant Andrew Tyler: I don't want an "I don't know." Can you fix the torpedo tube? Yes... or no?

    Seaman Charles 'Tank' Clemens: Yes, sir. I think I can.

    Lieutenant Andrew Tyler: Thank you, Tank. Chief, make depth 1-6-0 meters.

    Chief Klough: That's more than five hundred feet.

    Lieutenant Andrew Tyler: Take us down, Chief.

    Chief Klough: Aye, sir. One-six-zero meters. Twenty degrees dive both planes.

    EddieSeaman Ronald 'Rabbit' Parker, Torpedoman: Twenty degrees dive, aye, sir.

    Eddie: Mr. Tyler, sir, uh, do you plan on going up against a destroyer with only one fish in the tube and busted motor?

    Lieutenant Andrew Tyler: Yes, I am, Eddie.

    Lt. Hirsch: How wise is that, Lieutenant?

    Lieutenant Andrew Tyler: Not very. But have a look. Chief.

    [while speaking, drawing and showing Chief and Hirsch plan on paper]

    Lieutenant Andrew Tyler: There is no way a two-knot submarine can get in firing position against a thirty-knot destroyer unless we go deep. At one hundred sixty meters, we can shoot out a bunch of junk from the forward tubes. It will resurface and create a debris field. Now the destroyer's going to go to the center of that debris field, shut off its engines to make it real nice and quiet and do an acoustic search to make sure we're dead. But we're not. See, we're here, on our way up to periscope depth. All right, principle of ascent velocity. We let our positive buoyancy pull us up and away from the destroyer. And when we surface we'll be showing it our ass at seven hundred yards. That is a pefect setup for a stern shot on a stationary target. Boom. It don't get much prettier than that.

    Chief Klough: All right, Mr. Tyler. Passing 1-3-0 meters.

    Lieutenant Andrew Tyler: Very well. Rabbit, I need you to load Mazzola's body into tube three and put an escape jacket on him to make sure he floats.

    Seaman Ronald 'Rabbit' Parker, Torpedoman: Wanna shoot him out like garbage?

    Lieutenant Andrew Tyler: [pause; slowly turns around] His body is gonna save our lives.

    Seaman Ronald 'Rabbit' Parker, Torpedoman: I'll say a few words for him.
