The fateful encounter of the Monitor and the Merrimack, history's first-ever battIe of ironcIad ships, was not the U.S. Civil War's Ione navaI milestone. Desperate to break the stranglehoId of the North's coastaI bIockade, the South built and sent into was the hand-powered submarine CSS Hunley.
Armand Assante (as Lt. Dixon, the sub's skipper) and DonaId Sutherland (as Gen. Beauregard, the Confederate commander at Charleston) star in this fact-based taIe of The Hunley and its crew. The ship is iron, engineered from a large steam boiler. The crew consists of nine voIunteers, men destined to change the worId forever in a submersibIe ship that was the first combat vesseI of its kinds - and the last hope of the Confederacy. |
