Battle of the River Plate - I ordered the dvd, but it came in the wrong region code so I cant watch it. Would like to see it though. If anyone wants it that can watch that region code let me know. Will have to wait till I go to other state to pick it up though.
What is your region? Also, you can buy 'code-free' players. Third, put it in your computer; most PCs are set to change regions (but only a couple of times, so be sure to save it to your hard drive).

Also, why has no-one mentioned Das Boot yet?:rotfl:

My offers:

PT-109 (1963): not a great movie, but a good story, and more PT boats.

Corvette K-225 (1943): A really fun movie about escorting convoys. Unfortunately still not on DVD or video, but is shown on cable channels from time to time.

The Sea Chase (1955): Not such a good movie, but it has John Wayne as a GERMAN WW2 merchant captain, trying to get his crew home so they can make their own decision about whether to join up or not.

The Cruel Sea (1953): More with the escorts. Haven't seen it, but I've read the book; and people say it's a good one.

U-Boote Westwarts (1941): German u-boat movie, made during the war, and filmed on a real u-boat. Karl Doenitz plays himself. Melodromatic rah-rah propaganda, but no worse than American or British movies from the same era. Not available, but links have been posted to it on YouTube. I'm sorry I couldn't find it there; still looking.

That's all from me for now.
