Das Boot (1981)
Drama | War
-- The Director's Cut Special Edition (1985) --
When the Hunters Become the Hunted
This is director Wolfgang Peterson's ultimate version of one of the most critically acclaimed war movies of all time. An all new-restoration with over one hour of additional footage and a completely new stereo soundtrack that delivers the theatrical
experience to your home..this is DAS BOOT: The Director's Cut
User Comment: fendril • Das Boot is one of the best anti-war movies ever to have left the mind of any director. The chilly feeling of suspense along with the boredom felt with the men trapped in the cigar-like can, is the marking
of this great movie. Sadly enough only the Director's Cut is available for us "fanatics". The original mini-series is nowhere to be found and that is a tragedy as it contains at least 10 - 20 minutes more material that only adds to the incredible depth of
the characters. Jürgen Prochnow has never been seen better as the Captain, who commands the boat with a stern hand, and his not quite so well hidden distaste for "Der Führer".
Summary: One of the best movies from the 80's
