One of the few films where you can fart and pick your nose and blame it on the film.

It is a very good movie. I own the directors cut, and the orginal But it ultimatly is a movie, about a novel. I remember some surviving uboat captain (Eric topp? or was it Reinhard Hardigan?) said that the movie was accurate in its portrayal of boredom and life on a uboat, but to toss the rest as rubbish, or words to that effect.

In Operation Drumbeat the surviving crewmembers made some interesting comments about Das Boot, the movie, that is. But that's another thread.

You'll notice that every time the movie goes into action mode the Captain has a brain fart.

Not a bad film...as films go...and far better than some of the Hollywood efforts.
