1931 - All Quite On The Western Front

Melody Says...
One of the quotes at the beginning of the movies says something like, "some soldiers escape the war without the wounds but are still paralyzed by war". This movie followed a group of soldiers who were excited to go to war and showed more of the affects of war on them then actual war it self. Even though I thought this movie did a good job of telling the story it give it a triple.


Jacob Says...
It's going back, way back, to the wall. HOME RUN!!! A truly great movie with multiple moving scenes of different responses to war. It explores the idea and actuality, the zeal and the sobriety, and the patriotism and the common humanity of war. Even though this movie is from another age, it is the definition of a quality film.
