This film is WWII propaganda that may be difficult to fully value without understanding its historical backdrop. In the year leading up to the production of this film, U-boats significantly impacted Allied efforts by attacking shipping convoys, resulting in severe losses. The movie, which celebrates the bravery and sacrifices of these sailors, resonates more profoundly with those who experienced these harrowing times firsthand, mainly when the eventual outcome of these efforts was yet uncertain.
