So much fun that you really liked the Journalist guy. He went on to become the biggest selling music artist in Germany after the movie. And his music is known for being poetic, political at times and fun. He is a great guy, Herbert Grönemeyer.
They (the film-makers) had planned to open up the set and film from the outside, but found in the process that it destroyed the claustrophobic feel they were after. Cramming the cameraman in with the actors put the audience there, too. I think they also helped pioneer steadycam.
Indeed! The chief camera man, Jost Vacano, mounted the camera on a gyroscope that he'd buildt himself. This kind of dynamic steadicam was nicknamed "Josticam" in Hollywood in tribute to its creator. He also worked on a lot of Paul Verhoeven's Hollywood blockbusters (and flops LOL) during the 80s and 90s.
@0:05 has nothing to do with a shoe. If you want to do a review or reaction, pay at least some respect on some minimal requirements. Thumbs down, sorry mate.😊
One of the reasons why initially the film didn't do that well in Germany is the way it was financed. In order to get what was then an enormous budget by west german standards, they teamed up with a public broadcasting corporation. That's why there is a TV series version. And part of the deal was that the TV version was to be aired first. So a lot of potential viewers had already seen it on the telly, and didn't bother to watch the theatrical release in the cinema. And the music reminding you of The Neverending Story is to be expected, Klaus Doldinger did both scores.

Running to the front of the boat to weigh it down so it would sink faster was not an act of desperation, but common practice and was taught as such.

Never thought for a second the kaleun thought about killing the navigator😂
Unglaublich gute Zusammenfassung, vielen Dank. Greetings from FFM Germany
Excellent Movie. Excellent Review.

It's "Das Boot", like in "Das Boat" (small ship) and not "Das Buut" (like boots in footwear).
It's set in late 1941.
wrong year the film takes place in 1941

When are people going to finally learn to pronounce this film title properly ?
Apologies for mispronouncing it. I've looked it up so as to correct that for future reference, thanks for letting us know.
Plz speak "Das Boot" like "the boat". You talk it like "Das Stiefel" = "the boot or boots" it´s not right.
