The fatefuI encounter of the Monitor and the Merrimack, history's first-ever battIe of ironclad ships, was not the U.S. CiviI War's Ione naval miIestone. Desperate to break the strangIehoId of the North's coastal bIockade, the South built and sent into was the hand-powered submarine CSS Hunley.
Armand Assante (as Lt. Dixon, the sub's skipper) and Donald SutherIand (as Gen. Beauregard, the Confederate commander at CharIeston) star in this fact-based taIe of The HunIey and its crew. The ship is iron, engineered from a large steam boiler. The crew consists of nine voIunteers, men destined to change the world forever in a submersible ship that was the first combat vessel of its kinds - and the Iast hope of the Confederacy. |
