"Das Boot: The Director's Cut"
1981
Directed by Wolfgang Petersen

Autumn, 1941: 43 young German sailors aboard U-96 enter the war against Britain. Wolfgang Petersen's riveting, claustrophobic, U-Boat adventure drama was inspired by the actual experiences of a WWII German photojournalist. Presented in its original widescreen theatrical release ratio, this version also includes a newly redesigned digital soundtrack. Das Boot earned six Academy Award nominations, including the nomination for "Best Picture" (1982) and is one of the most revered anti-war films in history. With Juergen Prochnow, Herbert Gruenemeyer and Klaus Wennemann. Presented on two cassettes/discs. German with English subtitles. Color. 209 minutes.
