staffsreg Posted 17 November , 2005 Share Posted 17 November , 2005 Hopefully there are a few out there who have read Alistair Mcleans book HMS ULLYSSES. do you agree with me that this should be made into a movie? The back drop would be awesome, the aid to Russia convoys, and with such actors out there as Sir Anthony Hopkins, who would make an ideal Admiral Tyndall,it could be a masterpiece! Tell me your thought on this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell me your thought on this! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I read this a VERY long time ago and thought it was marvellous. Since there is no Larry, Sir John or Jack Hawkins, I suppose we will have to settle for what we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Dear Kevin, I have read this 4 or 5 times and am still gripped by the story...What a great pity they filmed the guns of navarone instead of this epic!

KF Kelly Posted 18 November , 2005 Share Posted 18 November , 2005 Ivan, I imagine that a good film could be made now, it would look terrific with modern computer graphics. my only worry would be that it would end up as USS Ulysses. Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
