Sink The Bismarck (1960)

And when the world´s most powerful battleship, Germany´s Bismarck, heads for the North Atlantic, Churchill gives the order to sink it at any cost!

Morituri (1965)

In this World War II espionage drama, Marlon Brando stars as Robert Crain, a German deserter coerced by a British Intelligence officer (Trevor Howard) to impersonate a Gestapo officer in order to seize a German blockade runner. Crain´s mission is an almost-certain death sentence: if he´s discovered, he´ll be slain. But if the British capture the ship, its captain (Yul Brynner) will destroy it!

The Frogmen (1951)

In this WWII adventure, a new commanding officer (Richard Widmark) is recruited to tighten the discipline of a group of navy underwater demolition experts known as "frogmen." Replacing a popular officer, the new commander must prove himself - and he tries - first by risking his own life to disarm a live torpedo, and then by helping the men on a mission to sabotage a Japanese submarine base.

The Enemy Below (1957)

Robert Mitchum and Curt Jurgens star in this absorbing World War II drama about an American destroyer and a German U-boat stalking each other at sea. As the captains try to outmaneuver each other, it becomes clear that any mistake can bring instant defeat. Winner of the 1957 Best Special Effects Oscar, The Enemy Below also marked the directorial debut of actor Dick Powell.
