MaceUK33 Everything is true Veteran Registered: 01/10/05 Posts: 12215 Loc: Darlington, UK.	I bough the book in the end. I have seen the film many times but never bought it on DVD, but thought I would try the book. Very different writing style with very short sentences but I like it.

Old Dux Senior Member Registered: 01/02/01 Posts: 4876 Loc: Derbyshire, England	An old friend of mine, long departed for that great distillery in the sky, was once told by his wife that watching Das Boot was like watching paint dry. Well, she would wouldn't she? _________________________ 'Find your enemy and shoot him down - everything else is unimportant.'

Catfish Member Registered: 06/26/09 Posts: 1080 Loc: Where the ocean meets the sky	Well it is a test: Watch "Das Booot" in its original TV uncut version, with your girlfriend/wife. If she's still your girlfriend/wife afterwards, there is something definitely wrong in your relationship

Tarnsman Senior Member Registered: 05/08/02 Posts: 4610 Loc: USA	Saw it at the movies it was at an "Art Theater" in German w/ english subtitles. It was unbelievably awesome. My 1997 DVD copy says " Das Boot: The Director's cut digitally redesigned and remixed soundtrack 60 minutes of extra footage" run time is 209 min., wide screen w/ German, English or Spanish voices and a choice of subtitles on or off. Commentary, making of etc.
