Winner of the 1957 Academy Award for Best Special Visual Effects. --A U.S. destroyer and a German U-boat meet in the South Atlantic during World War II, and a deadly battle unfolds as they try to find out each other's movements. A fair-play battle, akin to a sport between men at sea. A war action film depicting smart attacks, tense suspense and tactics. The original story "The Enemy Below Water" was written by Commander D.A. Rayner of the Royal Navy based on his own experiences. The action scenes are well directed by former actor Dick Powell, who also provides an excellent psychological portrayal of the characters. Robert Mitchum (Saraba Aishiki Hito, The Greatest Operation in History) and Austrian actor Kurt Jurgens (Air Force Grand Strategy) give sparkling performances as the two captains who, despite being enemies, recognize each other's skills.
