    Did you like Das Boot?

    I just finished reading



    about the sinking of a ship taking Brittish kids to Canada from England during WWII. It was sunk by a U Boat.

    Thought about watching Das Boot. Anyone watch it? Like it?

    Das Boot was brilliant, couldn't recommend it more. Unless you like sitting in one spot for 5 hours, though, I'd suggest watching it in the hour-long TV miniseries episodes.

    DAS BOOT was a bit slow, even by the far less action-packed standards of 1970's cinema, but it built up to a razor-sharp climax.

    A two-hour version in 70 mm was released in US theaters, but I don't know if it's available on DVD.

    Possibly the most absorbing war movie ever made. Made you see the war though the German point of view.
    Labor is prior to, and independent of, capital. Capital is only the fruit of labor, and could never have existed if labor had not first existed. Labor is the superior of capital, and deserves much the higher consideration.
