Run Silent, Run Deep (1958)
The Crew: World War II submarine commander Clark Gable and second in command Burt Lancaster are at dangerous odds with each other in the Pacific.
The Mission: When Clark Gable takes over the sub Erka, the crew looks on him with suspicion, as his previous command sunk at the hands of the Japanese under cloudy circumstances. Gable embarks on an Ahab-like quest to destroy the Japanese ship that sunk the submarine. Lancaster, meanwhile, who wanted command of the Erka, is Gable's reluctant subordinate. The clash of wills that takes place between the two men proves as compelling as the battle sequences.
