German U-boat U-96 leaves La Rochelle on a mission to destroy Allied shipping. Boredom, anxiety, and terror; the only realistic submarine film ever produced. Received 6 Oscar nominations including Best Director, Best Cinematography and Best Screenplay. Interior scenes filmed with a gyroscope-equipped camera. Watch only the Director's Cut at 209 minutes in length. There also exists an impossible-to-obtain miniseries version which is even slightly longer.
