I’m so excited for Master and Commander! Das Boot would be a great foray into a foreign language film. If we pick that one, though, please pronounce the word “Boot” as “Boat”, since that’s how it would be in German ;)
I’d also second The Life Aquatic. Pirates of the Caribbean would be a good one I think to compare-contrast with Master and Commander.
I would suggest "Das Boot", one of the best german films. However, there are three different versions: the original 150 minutes theatrical cut from 1981, the 290 minutes tv cut from 1984 and a 208 minutes director's cut from 1997. I haven't seen the director's cut yet, but both other cuts are definetly worth watching -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Das_Boot
July Movie Theme
Let Them All Talk by Steven Soderbergh

As a german I have to second Das Boot as well, even though I haven't watched it meself yet either.

The Big Blue, there will be be a lot to talk about.

A Night to Remember
Das Boot and Waterworld!

Not a movie, my suggestion is useless, but worth a mention: The Rime of the Ancient Mariner by Iron Maiden, and Obra Dinn
Again, useless, but these two came to mind.
