TRIVIA---May 27 is the 77th anniversary of the sinking of the German super battleship Bismarck during World War II. In the movie SINK THE BISMARCK, the Bismarck is shown sinking the British battlecruiser HMS Hood and the destroyer HMS Solent. However, the Solent's sinking was fiction that was added for drama.

In SINK THE BISMARCK, the Bismarck sinks HMS Hood, the pride of the Royal Navy.

In SINK THE BISMARCK, the fictitious destroyer HMS Solent hits the Bismarck with a torpedo and is then sunk by the German battleship. The real HMS Solent was a submarine that was launched in 1944---three years after the movie was set.
