Editorial Reviews:

"Rich" Richardson (Clark Gable) is a hard-driving, dedicated submarine officer with a single-mindedpurposeto seek out and smash the Japanese destroyer he believes sank 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.

Summary: Best Damn Submarine Movie Ever!
Comment: This film must be at the top of every submarine war movie lover's list. There are other fine films, but this is definitely the best. I have loved this film since I was a kid. How could it help but be the best with a cast that includes Clark Gable and Burt Lancaster.

Summary: A WW2 Submarine Classic
Comment: This classic film features two strong leading men - Clark Gable and Burt Lancaster - in a realistic submarine movie. Lancaster was a producer on the project and pursued realism and authenticity in the production. Both men are tough and equally clear about their mission. For Gable, a captain whose former command was sunk, his focus is to sink the famed and fast Akikaze Japanese destroyer that can only be sunk with a dangerous bow shot. Otherwise, it's not in position long enough to hit. For Lancaster, the trust and care of his men (not unlike Gable's desire to avenge the death of his men) is a preeminent concern.
Gable and Lancaster are at their finest in this film. In addition, such stalwart actors as Brad Dexter, Jack Warden and a comedic Don Rickles round out the cast.

Summary: "Silent, But Deadly"
Comment: One of the most suspensfully intense movies ever made. Gable and Lancaster are perfect in their roles, and there is a great supporting cast. The eerie sounds of the sonar equipment and the feeling of claustrophobia in the interior of the submarine add to the intensity. If you have never seen this great WWII flick, you should add it to your viewing plans.
