Can someone recommend which Das Boot cut I should get?

It's been quite a while since i've seen it, so I may not even know the difference between the original or director's cut. I want to add it to my dvd collection. These 'director cuts' can be a funny thing though. I despise the Blade Runner Dir. cut(i know many will disagree), but I thought a key scene was added to the Dir. cut of Stargate. A bogus music scene was added in the version of The Abyss, but a great scene was left out of the original T2. I can go back and forth with this, but more times than not, I find myself saying during those dir. cuts "GEZE! NO WONDER that cut that part out". A lot of times I just think it's director's arrogance, and they feel they should fix something that isn't broke. We fell in love with these movies the way they were. Gosh, I hope my wife doesn't come back in a few years with a director's cut of herself "this is the REAL me, not the one you married and are happy with"
