Film Description

Classic WWII drama starring Jack Hawkins, The Cruel Sea is the story of a tough, professional sailor, a mainly amateur crew and how they learn to fight against Nazi subs and the Atlantic. Based on the novel by Nicholas Monserrat.

Lt. Commander Ericson (Jack Hawkins) has already lost one ship to an enemy attack when he is given command of the frigate Saltash Castle. A subsequent confrontation in the North Atlantic tests Ericson's leadership to the limit once again, as he risks sacrificing the lives of his crew for the greater good.
