The Enemy Below

“The most amazing saga in the fighting annals of the US Navy!”

Capt. Murrell (Robert Mitchum) is new to the USS Haynes, an American destroyer escort, and his crew isn't sure what to make of him. When sonar picks up a German U-boat, he finds himself matched against Kapitän von Stolberg (Curd Jürgens), a commander as patient and practiced as he is. Dick Powell keeps the two ships circling for hours, and Murrell begins to read his opponent like a man he has known for years.
