Buchheim about Petersen's movie

In the book the fighters go for the flak guns, the bombers unload on the bunkers. So one could indeed critize all those explosions everywhere in the movie. Also, in the book there's nothing said about how many and which men in the story die during that air raid. I guess it was nesseccary to let most of them die in the movie because the charakter of the Kaleun isn't as "impressive" as in the book so it wouldn't have been shocking enough if only he died.

Edit: On that map Germany isn't in range either but it was as you know. ;]
