Csinibaba (1997)
completely misunderstands a whole era
This is a movie that wants to display the past communist era in Hungary as one where life was cheery and happy, only a few did encounter the government. This is quite a false opinion, as it does not mention that terror and fear ruled the people's everyday lives. When people did not trust even their closest relatives there could not be such a barbiegirl-like world. Some may suspect that this was quite propagandistic. People who do not know the communist world might think it was good. However, this does not meet the truth.
Das Boot (1981)
one film that catches the milieu of a sub
Really expresses the feelings of the underdog. Fear, anger, oppressed aggressivity and at last despair are the main emotions of the crew. They struggle for their bare survival not war glory or just scoring one more sunk ship. And at last, when they escape of their enemies - both the weather and cruisers - it is the mainland when they are defeated.
