I would toss in Greyhound with Tom Hanks.  As I said in the Apple thread, it’s tightly edited, well-cast, well-written, and well-directed, and moves along extremely well.

YES!

 

Watched it twice already.

 

Trying to think of any other movies that have come out since 2019

Then went with

U-571

Hunt for Red October

Crimson Tide

Greyhound

Seems like there were a couple others

Finished with

Down Periscope

I’ve probably watched 30-40 hours of YouTube videos about WWII naval actions.  Some were older documentaries (PBS, BBC, History Channel, etc.)somebody took of their VCRs and uploaded, but a lot were done by historian YouTubers (I hesitate to say “amateur historian” given that they are doing this as a profession) who put in a lot of time and effort with background material and spiffy animations.

There is some stuff on YouTube that is extremely well done and can scratch that itch.
