Das Boot is reported to be the most expensive film ever made in West Germany. costing the equivalent of between 312 and $13 million. Much of the expense is evident in the meticulous atten- tion to physical detail and in the authentic recreation of the claus- trophobic environment of the submarine itself. F Few movies dealing with this area of warfare have ever SOC- ceeded to anything like the same degree in making the audience feel " cmttined and involved in the action as the crew itself. This sense of a "shared experience" is what makes Das Boot truly ex- traordinary. Writerdirector Wolfgang Pe- tersen hasengineered an incredi- ble technical achievement. but he has done so without sacrificing any of the emotional impact of the story.

The movie details what happened to the submarine and crew on a single mission in 1941. Although the view of the See- ond World War that is depicted in Das Boot is from the German perspective. it is a view without national bias and is unjaundiced by either political rhetoric or patriotic propaganda. No Truffaut tiim stands en- time on its own, and one’s knowledge and understanding of his previous tttms certainly can be beateMeiai in appreciating this latest one. From the very beginning. with Truffnut using his tmsg-favored literary device of a narrator. we know pretty much in what direc- tion the plot will take us. It is the characters then - or. more appro- priately In thls case. the psychol- ogy of the characters - which must hold our interest throughout the picture. MW the story the“ is predominantly downbeat in mood, Truffaut injects a fair amount of my humor into the picture. - Truffaut, such as the current The Walla-NextDoaI-Jurnsupata local theatre it is likely to attract only a very select audience.
