The sources are complete. EDIT: Now downloaded complete. It has both Russian and original German audio.
Hey Night, how is the quality of that 5.93gb file? Any noticeable difference?

What, you expect me to actually look closely at what I download? ;)

(Note: I am no longer sharing the torrent I linked because no one was getting it from me, but since it is a Russian torrent it is surely still seeded. I am still sharing ghost's eMule file.)

Number specifications:

Screenshots, alternating ghost's first and the Russian torrent second:

Noticeable differences:
The Torrent version has Russian audio in addition to German.
The Torrent version is AR 1.85, ghost's is AR 1.78.
Ghost's looks "correct" to my eyes and the Torrent looks "stretched". Playback can be fixed with VLC set to 16:9. My eyes do not notice any significant visual quality difference. Seriously, what do you expect from a ghost file? I linked the torrent for those who do not eMule.

Yeah, I can't tell much difference either, aside from the AR. Thank for the screenshot comparison and the breakdown, Night!

I have seen this film at least twice, and this English-only speaker understands the story and characters well enough. However, I have ONE spoiler question for German speakers who know the film, about the ending.
Spoiler:

What madness possessed Hannes to take his two girlfriends Carolin and Kerstin out into an oncoming storm in his little boat? Benno told them it was a really bad idea.
Did Hannes seriously believe it would just be a pleasant little cruise, or was he trying to actually accomplish something? Or is he just a mule-headed macho idiot?
Thank you!

I'd...

...vote for the macho idiot. But I'm not sure. It's been so long ago, when I wtched the movie.

That was my best guess from his character, thanks. Any other German speakers see it more recently than ghost and remember it better?
