All Quiet on the Western Front

All Quiet on the Western Front

1930

Teenage German soldiers pass from idealism to despair in this poignant, Oscar-winning adaptation of Erich Maria Remarque's anti-war novel. Awarded the Oscar for Best Picture, the film was banned in countries going to war years after its release, and unlike most "message" films that date themselves almost immediately, director Lewis Milestone's film has lost little of its original impact.

At last....the motion picture!
