Remember we were discussing this series a few months ago? Have you
seen the 2019 movie he starred in entitled "Torpedo: U-235"? Rotten
Tomatoes only gave it 2 stars out of 5 while Amazon gives it 4 stars out
of 5.

If you like action/adventure you might want to give it a shot. But he's
certainly not compulsive/obsessive Professor T in this vehicle.

I've seen part of it. It was so much like a 60s American movie, that I
stopped halfway. If I remember correctly, that 60s look was
intentional. Also, the music was deliberately dated and very
orchestral.

I think Koen De Bouw's a good actor. They use him a lot, though. He's
in everything.

Oh dear, the music must not have impressed me much as I really don't
remember it. I do remember they had the record player on the submarine,
though.

Dutch TV series that my local PBS station picked up. It was quite
good and wish it had been a longer series.

That's a good point. I don't have any problem with 60's originals myself. It was a high point in European cinema.

It's Belgian, actually, but Dutch spoken. Half the Belgians speak
Dutch, the other half French.

I've met a fair few who speak German, too, but as I understand it, there
are two official languages spoken there.

It's not an area, but a country. And they don't all speak English
French or Dutch.

Were you playing that game where you try to put as many falsehoods as
possible in one sentence?

BeNeLux is an area. And I say they do speak all that.

You were the first one to mention the Benelux and you only did so
because you couldn't handle being wrong. Just as you're wrong when you
say everybody in that "area" speaks Dutch, German and French. Aren't
you American? You couldn't even point at Belgium on a map

Heck, that would probably take me a dozen tries or more.
Nobody cares about them except for eastern europe and most Americans
don't care about eastern europe and all their bickering.

I'll bet you many Americans couldn't name every state on a blank USA map
correctly. I tried it got at least 6 wrong. Maybe a few more. I knew the
general areas but messed up some states side by side.

That was a required job skill for some people who I worked with.

I don't want the emeritus American to feel left out, but also Alaska and
northern Canada, where they keep changing borders.

That never affected the mob from getting what they wanted. The don and his wife at Mar-el-Lago probably can't point stuff out on maps, either. Or even simply google where it is, like Bruce.

I know Americans can't point at the European countries correctly.
That's ok. Europeans could maybe identify 3 US states and get the rest
wrong. But brucebowser was talking nonsense about Europe. And he knew
it because he called Belgium an "area" to be safe

Belgium is in eastern Europe??? Dang, what map have I looked at all
these years??? Belgium would be surprised as well to find they are
not in western Europe.

Speaking of the mob and Don (aka Godfather)...
Remember way back when John Gotti was considered the NYC mafia Godfather?

I remember seeing a small article on page 2 of my newspaper one day at
that time.

A petty thief with a long history of muggings and robbery saw a priest
walking with an old lady one night. He assulted the priest then turned
and punched out the old lady, grabbed her purse and took off running.

Some helpful citizens saw that and they tackled the guy as he tried to
run past them. They called the cops and he was arrested.

Later, in the interrogation room, the guy was very arrogant. He had been
in jail many times before (short sentences) and didn't mind doing a bit
more time. "Go ahead and convict me. I don't care. I'll be out in a year
or two anyway."

That's when the detective informed him that the priest he assaulted was
John Gotti's brother and the old lady was his mother.

The suspect visibly paled and shut his mouth when he heard that. LOLOL

I never did see a follow-up to that story. I should google it. I just
made a note to do that today.

Geographically speaking, my old globe and my old wall map shows the
"Soviet Union." I'd have little clue as to the smaller countries there now.

LOL. Hard to understand the ignorance and even lack of interest in
being informed about the ball of dirt you live on.

Holy cow Gary. I never expected you to be so boastful about your
ignorance. Belgium is in western Europe and borders Germany, the
Netherlands, France and the English channel. We had two world wars that
saw Germany invade neutral Belgium.

Angeles?

anything to do with intelligence.
