Battle By Sea Movie Collection: Run Silent, Run Deep / Submarine X-1 / The Enemy Below (Widescreen)

The "Battle By Sea Movie Collection" includes "Run Silent, Run Deep", "Submarine X-1" and "The Enemy Below". "Run Silent, Run Deep": "Rich" Richardson (Clark Gable) is a hard-driving, dedicated submarine officer with a single-minded purpose - to seek out and smash the Japanese destroyer he believes sunk his former ship. Given a new command, Richardson drills his men to the point of mutiny as he relentlessly trains them for the battle ahead. At last, word comes of the destroyer's position, and disobeying orders, Richardson finally confronts his foe, unaware that an even greater enemy lurks nearby...one who's been targeting him for a watery grave. Co-starring Burt Lancaster as Gable's executive officer, this gripping WWII adventure-thriller set a new standard for submarine pictures. "Severely, nail-bitingly tense" (The New York Times), "Run Silent, Run Deep" is the most exciting film about the 'silent service' ever made. "Submarine X-1": Academy Award(R) nominee James Caan commands a covert naval operation in this riveting drama inspired by an amazing true story discovered in declassified British War Office files. With "first-class underwater photography" (Variety) and taut suspense, this tale of heroism paved the way for films like "The Hunt For Red October." Commander Bolton (Caan) has lost his submarine, the Gauntlet, in a sea battle with the Nazis in 1943. Although the survivors still blame him, he's cleared of charges and assigned to lead a top-secret training program with three experimental miniature X-1 subs, each manned by a crew of only four. Their mission: to sink the mighty battleship Lindendorf - the same ship that destroyed the Gauntlet. "The Enemy Below": Robert Mitchum and Curt Jurgens star in this gripping World War II drama about an American destroyer and a German U-Boat stalking each other at sea. As both men try to outthink and out maneuver each other, the chase becomes a deadly chess game in which any mistake can bring instant defeat and death.
