Review of Sink the Bismarck! (1960) by Mike A — 12 Dec 2011
As a naval historian I often have real issues with the over dramatasiation of WW2 films and the fast and loose attitude to the truth.
This film deals with one of the most dramatic and critical moments in the battle of the atlantic in WW2 and I am thankful the producer realised there was enough drama without needing to add more.
It does not glorify the action nor portray the Germans as an evil race. It sticks to the story closely and builds to the inevitable but breathtaking finale.
Great performances from some respected actors and some original footage.
I always settle down and watch this whenever it is on Tv.
Watch It.
