Cinema: U-571, second world war and submarines

U-571 is a production by Dino and Martha De Laurentiis, directed by Jonathon Mostow, and interpreted in the main parts by Matthew McConaughey, Bill Paxton, Harvey Keitel and Jon Bon Jovi.

The film (www.u-571.com) is an example of what some people call the "submarine films". The story line is based on the Second World War, at a time when the German fleet is winning the match against the allies thanks to a communications system called Enigma.
