description: The Good Shepherd has been adapted into a major motion picture Greyhound scripted by and starring Tom Hanks directed by Aaron Schneider and produced by Gary Goetzman. A convoy of thirty-seven merchant ships is ploughing through icy submarine-infested North Atlantic seas during the most critical days of World War II when the German submarines had the upper hand and Allied shipping was suffering heavy losses. In charge is Commander George Krause an untested veteran of the U.S. Navy. Hounded by a wolf pack of German U-boats he faces 48 hours of desperate peril trapped on the bridge of the ship. Exhausted beyond measure he must make countless and terrible decisions as he leads his small fighting force against the relentless U-boats.
