Fun fact: The movie was actually based on a true story.


It wasn't a submarine that was stolen, but rather a state-of-the-art destroyer. And they weren't looking to defect; quite the contrary, they were sailing to Leningrad trying to incite another revolution to bring about "true communism". The below video is quite an interesting watch.
