Das Boot original either series or film, the remake in my view is not a patch on the original.


Original, and you can switch between German and English.


Well enjoy- it is something we have rewatched a fair few times over the years, it really does not get stale.

I watched that several years ago because of its ratings but didn't quite get why it was ranked so highly.
