Das Boot is among the BEST war movies ever made. By the time the movie is over, you actually feel sympathy for the German "Grauwolfen".
I always remember the opening credits of the movie, where they mention that 3 out of 4 German submariners never came home from the war.
Another good movie to see is "The Rough Riders", a TNT film about Teddy Roosevelt and his boys.
The best scene in the whole movie is when some rich eastern Ivy-League members of Teddy's troop recieve a GIFT from their father to take into battle. The gift arrives on the back of a wagon, covered by a tarp. They pull back the tarp to show a wooden crate marked "Colt's Patent Firearms".
Inside the crate are several M1895 "Potato Digger" machine guns.
I wish we could take delivery (as civilians) nowadays of new in-the-crate machine guns!
