My favorite antiwar movie remains "Das Boot," the 1981 German film about a World War II U-boat and its crew. Wolfgang Petersen, the director of this classic, has listed his Santa Monica house for sale at $3.95 million.
The two-story Mediterranean home north of Montana has a gourmet kitchen with an oversized granite-topped center island, a Viking range and a wine refrigerator. The recently completed home has a dramatic entrance, dark walnut flooring, a circular staircase and a family room with a fireplace that opens to the garden. There are six bedrooms and 5 1/2 bathrooms in the 4,665 square feet of living space.
Petersen was nominated for an Oscar for his work on "Das Boot," and he also produced and directed "Poseidon" in 2006, "Troy" in 2004 and "The Perfect Storm" in 2000.
Margareta Saperston of Coldwell Banker's Westwood office is the listing agent, according to the Multiple Listing Service.
