SPOILER BELOW!!!

Never play poker with my wife.

She'd never seen Das Boot, so I found it on-demand and we sat down on Sunday to watch it together.

During the run through Gibraltar, she turned to me and said, "They're not all going to die are they? I don't want to watch these men all die."

I said, "Honey, of the 40,000 men who served on U-boats, 30,000 never made it home again... ... but these men make it back to port, yes."

She stared at me for 30 seconds or so... ... then said, "And THEN they die, right?"

I couldn't keep a straight face. I tried, I just couldn't.

She got up, went upstairs, and read a book.
