With film and stock footage, please be aware that quality may have effected it while viewing over time. The documentary covers Germany’s General Rommel and British General Montgomery in the desert. This documentary shows actual footage of Rommel and Hitler themselves. During the making of this film, four British Army cameramen were killed, seven were wounded, and six were taken prisoners by the Germans. Wartime even during World War II was a dangerous time for even the cast and crew who were determined to show the world the enemy’s path of destruction in the desert. World War II’s primary motive was to overtake and control the world. Hitler and his men were on their way but thankfully they lost.

This is only appropriate for gray colored ships shooting it out in the North Atlantic. The performers were, for the most part, convincing. The movie got a little risky by using a fictional character (played by Kenneth More) for the lead role, and delving a bit into his personal life. But it didn’t get out of hand. The movie takes just the right amount of time in developing and depicting the important events in the eight day life of the Bismarck. I got the feeling that I was actually there and watching these events take place. The movie is essentially accurate, based on accounts I have read in books; including one by the highest ranking German survivor. The depiction of the destruction of the British battle cruiser Hood was not exactly accurate, but I would rank that a minor point. Getting the ship used in the movie to blow up the same way the Hood would probably have been more trouble than it was worth. The bottom line is the ship was destroyed and only three crew members survived.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis movie is an excellent, no-nonsense portrayal of the short and dramatic life of the legendary German battleship Bismarck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFine war film\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text show-more__control\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA distinguished wide-screen film that honors those who served in a great British naval episode while showing generally how naval warfare was carried out in the early days of WWII.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEffectively portraying the sheer power of one of the most monstrous weapons ever devised by the dark side of the human mind- the battleship Bismarck.

But the British? Apparently not sufficiently. I say astonishingly because the Germans did not start with it long before WW I, having no experience like the other sea nations. The British Navy had a long tradition of being the supreme Sea-Power for more than 3 centuries. This made them perhaps believe that there was no real threat from the “hun” land-rats. But the British ignorance is too apparently one reason for the sinking of the Hood. The Hood was a WWI built ship. If the British would have learned their lesson in the Battle of Jutland and other naval battles of WW 1 with the German “Hochseeflotte” they would have never send the Hood and the not so much stronger Prince of Wales against the two brand new German ships \/the other the cruiser Prinz Eugen). Naval experts and all who study the matter know well why British warships had extreme difficulties to stand against comparable German warships. I mention here only two facts: 1. the German ships were better armoured, this meant constructed to give a most perfect protection (the British ships being build lighter for more speed could be the winner for the battle with the big Spanish armada, but that was some hundred years ago). I quote a British Admiral at the Battle of Jutland, after two or three of their battleships exploded in a similar way the Hood did 25 years later: “Something must be wrong today with our ships!” How right he was. The mistake in construction of the British ships were apparent, but no decisions were made. The Hood got a better armour after WW 1, but the Germans got a better artillery and munition as well! 2. the German had the superior artillery. They were able to hit the target in short time of execution. The German artillery was already superior in WW 1. This was a question of development. The German war industry in the first half of the 20. century took advantage of the highly developed German capabilities of engineering – by the way, not to the benefit of the Germans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/rareandcollectibledvds.com\/product\/sink-the-tirpitz\" title=\"Sink The Tirpitz\"\u003eSink The Tirpitz\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"FilmClassicsonDVD","offers":[{"title":"DVD","offer_id":51487070748959,"sku":"sibism-1","price":12.94,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"DOWNLOAD","offer_id":51487070781727,"sku":"sibism-2","price":10.94,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0944\/0788\/5087\/files\/Sink-The-Bismark-rareandcollectibledvds-689.jpg?v=1766641529"},{"product_id":"sinthe-tirpitzk","title":"SinThe Tirpitzk","description":"\u003ch2\u003eDescription\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSink The TirpitzWinston Churchill called her ‘Hitler’s Beast’.

The stress of war time traffic had worn out most of the equipment used in passenger service. This was to be fixed with shinny new streamliners from manufactures Budd, Pullman and EMD.
