Walter Mirsch produced a bunch of these war films in the 60s - shot in England, medium budget, imported American star. Here it's James Caan, doing professional work but seeming bored. He's right to be bored. It's not a very good movie - something about prepping for a submarine raid. It's darkly lit (at least the copy I saw was) and I couldn't tell the supporting cast apart - full of nondescript British actors. Caan plays a Canadian. I couldn't really follow what was going on - well, actually I could, they were going on a mission to blow something up, it was more I didn't care.
