watch assault on a queen 1965...

I watched this and thought it was a great movie a good film about wwII U-boats and a hot blonde is in it too .




Plot:

A World War II-era German U-2 submarine missing for 20 years is retrieved by diver Mark Brittain. He recruits several others to return the sub to working condition and then pull a daring million-dollar heist on the British ocean liner Queen Mary, which they plan to rob on the high seas while the liner is making a transatlantic crossing.

Where did you find a copy of that?
Netflix does not carry it and Amazon might have it on vhs.

If it's the same movie I remember it was funny how the cutter was able to detonate torpedoes with a machine gun at the end

That plot description looks like it came from Wikipedia so it must be true! Or maybe not.

This is the IMDB plot description:

A group of adventurers refloat a WWII German submarine and prepare to use it to pull a very large heist; The Queen Mary which they plan to rob on the high seas.

The torrent for this avi sucks.
Let it run overnight and woke up to a whopping 38%. Screaming 4.5kbps.
Oh well good thing I'm stubborn.

I saw this movie myself long ago on public TV here in Spain. But I was so young I don't remember the details anymore, just the general plot. Would like to see it again, just out of curiosity .

In any case, this is a thread for the films forum -where it was already mentioned IIRC- so I'm moving it, but leaving a redirect here.
