U-571
U-571 is a 2000 WWII military action film starring Matthew McConaughey as a US naval officer who finds himself the leader of a secret mission to capture the German coding machine known as the Enigma aboard a German U-Boat.
M1911A1
The M1911A1 is the standard issue sidearm of the US sailors in the film. Seen predominantly in the hands or holsters of Lt. Andrew Tyler (Matthew McConaughey) & CPO Henry Klough (Harvey Keitel).
Thompson M1928A1
The Thompson M1928A1 is used by several of the sailors when commandeering the U-571. Interestingly, the Thompsons featured in the film have the buttstocks removed, and have folding stocks taken from chopped M1A1 Carbine Paratrooper stocks installed. Though this is historically 'possible' there is no evidence of this being done during WWII.

MP40
The German crew of the U-571 are seen attempting to repel the US invaders with MP40's.
MG34
