I have seen the movie "Das Boot" a couple of times. I was not aware it was originally a miniseries. That is one I'll have to find. Anyone have an idea where I can find it?

Least favorite director?

Re: Least favorite director?

Definitely Michael Moore. He doesn't make films; he makes propaganda, and then tries to stuff it all down our throats. I have no idea how he has been able to make a living directing "films".

Your favorite low budget film

Re: your favorite low budget film?

Napoleon Dynamite was superb film that cost only $400,000 to produce, yet it grossed $46,000,000 worldwide. I have seen it twice and will probably watch it again.
