DETAILED DESCRIPTION What is claimed is: 1. A sealable, biaxially oriented polyester film comprising: a base layer B, at least 80% by weight of which is composed of a thermoplastic polyester; an outer layer A, composed of a polymer or of a mixture of polymers comprising: at least 40% by weight of ethylene 2,6-naphthalate units; optionally up to 40% by weight of ethylene terephthalate units; and optionally up to 60% by weight of units from aliphatic diols, cycloaliphatic diols, aromatic diols, aliphatic dicarboxylic acids, cycloaliphatic dicarboxylic acids, aromatic dicarboxylic acids, or a combination thereof; and an opposite outer layer C having a sealing initialization temperature of . ltoreq. 130. degree. C. , wherein the compositions of layers A and C are not identical, and wherein layer C is amorphous. 2. A film as claimed in claim 1, wherein the outer layer A comprises at least 65% by weight of ethylene 2,6-naphthalate units. 3. A film as claimed in claim 1, wherein the outer layer A comprises at least 70% by weight of ethylene 2,6-naphthalate units. 4. A film as claimed in claim 1, wherein the film has an oxygen permeability of less than 80 cm. sup. 3 /(m. sup. 2 bar d). 5. A film as claimed in claim 1, wherein the film has an oxygen permeability of less than 75 cm. sup. 3 /(m. sup. 2 bar d). 6. A film as claimed in claim 1, wherein the film has an oxygen permeability of less than 70 cm. sup. 3 /(m. sup. 2 bar d). 7. A film as claimed in claim 1, wherein the outer layer C is amorphous and composed of copolyesters comprising two or more monomeric building blocks selected from the group consisting of naphthalene-2,6-dicarboxylic acid, terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid, hexahydroterephthalic acid, ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, and neopentyl glycol. 8. A film as claimed in claim 1, wherein the outer layers A and C have a thickness of from 0. 2 to 6 . mu. m. 9. A film as claimed in claim 1, wherein the outer layers A and C have a thickness of from 0. 3 to 5. 5 . mu. m. 10. A film as claimed in claim 1, wherein the outer layers A and C have a thickness of from 0
