RE: "Das Boot" was originally a TV mini series

Thanks, I didn't know that -- I'll seek it out.

I usually love the director's cut, but felt the merciless monotony at sea was presented well enough in the original release. Perhaps my reading the book helped. Some of my favorite parts of the movie are scenes of problem solving which are conveyed better on screen than I can read about.

Prochnow differs so physically compared to the book's Captain (more like Philip Seymour Hoffman?), but I couldn't envision any better choice for the film.
