🇺🇸 Greyhound 2020 (INSPIRED BY REAL EVENTS, Eng sub)

The film "Greyhound" (2020), starring Tom Hanks, is inspired by real events but is not a direct true story. - It’s based on the 1955 novel "The Good Shepherd" by C.S. Forester. - The story follows U.S. Navy Commander Ernest Krause (a fictional character) during the Battle of the Atlantic in World War II. - Krause commands the destroyer USS Keeling (codenamed Greyhound) while escorting Allied convoys across the North Atlantic, protecting them from German U-boats. Historical basis: - The Battle of the Atlantic (1939–1945) was very real and one of the longest continuous campaigns of WWII. - Allied convoys crossing from North America to Britain were indeed stalked by German U-boats in “wolfpacks.” - The tactics, dangers, and struggles shown in the film are historically accurate. Fictional elements: - Commander Krause and the USS Keeling are fictional creations. - The film condenses multiple real-life events into one convoy battle for dramatic effect.
