The Enemy Below

Watched the film tonight on AMC, for about the 10th time. Then I did a search on this site and read all the comments. Odd, the greatest interest was in reference to, "the song".

This is a great movie!! It is not about U-boats or American destroyers, it is about men and war. Nothing more should be made of it and the technical errors should be ignored. Sort of a nautical, "All Quiet on the Western Front", in my opinion.

Good entertainment and great acting by Jurgens and Mitchum.

No need for comments, just thought I'd make an observation.

PS: My reference to "All Quiet on the Western Front" brought to mind another great book. "The Forgotten Soldier", by whom I am afraid I cannot recall. A WW II sequel to AQOTWF. I encourage all to read it.
