 Yes, I know "Das Boot" translate directly into English as "The Boat" (the marathon-length director's cut is one of my all time favorite movies) but I wanted to do a play on words; German to English. I hope people get it...

Again, sorry for not getting your title. Now that I know what you were referring to, it's quite funny. I don't think that would have changed my voting much though. Congrats on your top 40 finish.

Okay, had it just been a boot in the photo this wouldn't have really worked for me. Actually I'm not really sure why it works for me, but I like it

Creative composition for the movie title, nice play on words. Exposed nicely. Super job, one of my favorites.

Huh? 'Das Boot' is a German war movie and has nothing to do with bondage! By the way, the costumes are dusty. 2.

Isn't Das Boot a submarine movie?

clever idea.
I'm not sure about the lighting it seems a bit harsh and the focus a bit off?

Very tight and very appealing, almost like a Grigigirl impression.
