U boat all wrong
Hardly the fault of the film makers as there were no WW2 U boats sailing in 1971 but the type 1X and V11C of the period were very much smaller in size and less streamlined than the submarine shown on the film.The advanced Electro boats of 1945 were introduced too late in the war to be used in the front line.The film makers try to disguise this with little touches such as a 'bandstand' to the rear of the conning tower but it's obviously too modern a sub for WW2!
