Short description
In the dark silence of the sea during World War II, the submarine USS Tiger Shark prowls on what should be a routine rescue mission. But for the shell-shocked crew, trapped together in the sub's narrow corridors and constricted spaces, this is about to become a journey into the sensory delusions, mental deceptions and runaway fears that lurk just below the surface of the ocean.
What's left behind the scenes
- The working title of the film was "Proteus".
- Filming took place on Lake Michigan (Illinois) and in studio pavilions in the United Kingdom.
- Darren Aronofsky was originally the director of the film and began preparations for filming as early as 1999, but he later abandoned the project in favor of "Requiem for a Dream" (2000).
- The song playing on the gramophone aboard the submarine was intended to be Frank Sinatra's "I'll Be Seeing You," but it was replaced with Benny Goodman's "Sing Sing Sing (With a Swing)" due to copyright issues.
- Some scenes were filmed on a real World War II submarine – the "Silversides," moored in Muskegon, Michigan, as a museum exhibit. It was transported to Lake Michigan and repainted with dull, rusty paint to enhance realism, and then restored to its original appearance after filming.
