Question:
Hi,
Just watched this movie yesterday, and thought it was really good.
At the beginning, it says it's based on real-life events. How real are we talking here? How much of it is based on actual fact?
Websites etc. with more information would be appreciated.
Cheers!

This is a true story, I think unlike many Hollywood films much is true. There was an excellent documentary about this on the History Channel at the weekend.
Yup its 100% true im suprised you didnt know the story already as its a fairly recent happening.

1961 isn't that recent, and I didn't know about it until the film came out.
This site (http://crater.nationalgeographic.com/k19/) has some info on it.

are you getting mixed up with the Kursk? or perhaps you have been in a coma for 40 years?
Read the Book 'Hostile Waters' by Peter Hutchthausen.
It's the real story (i've not seen film so can't comment on accuracy)
Thanks guys - annoyed I missed the History Channel thing! Some good stuff on that website though.
