All Quiet on the Western Front Wo alle Straßen enden

Great edit... God this movie was so good

[@jasonnicholasschwarz7788]

My main beef with this movie is that it reeks of Nazi Germany and a post WW2 POV. But WW1 has to be treated from the perspective of 1914-1918 in order to portray it realistically. So far, in no movie has anyone ever succeeded to create the right "feel" of that period that knew nothing of the collapse of German monarchy or the "old world" as such which was not only a German thing, but affected the entire world, but Europe especially. Highly intelligent and sensitive people would have felt the storm on the horizon in the years prior to 1914, but to the majority, it came as a shock and their natural reflex was to preserve their way of life. Patriotism was not a precursor of fascism (yet), and funny enough still isn't in most countries. Germany alone has been accused of militarism and territorial greed when in fact we only have to look at Great Britain and it's history over tha past 300 years which saw it conquering and basically claiming almost every economically promising spot on the planet without anyone ever calling them names for it. Imperialism is just another form of fascism really, and India can tell their story about it. What I am trying to say is that this movie drifts off from a dedicated depiction of the spirit of the times to an interpretation of events that weren't about to happen for another 25 years yet. It's simply not telling the right story.

I mean probably "Die letzte Kompanie" would make more sense, doesnt it? Since the song is about senseless attack by german soldiers when the war was already lost and the treaty signed but it wasnt the 11.11 at 11 o'clock

[@harrisonmcarthur7816]

I have never heard of Die letzte Kompanie before. I'll have to look it up.

[@kimberlykimmie9546]

Which one is this

[@harrisonmcarthur7816]

Song: Wo alle straßen enden Movie: all quiet on the western front.

[@jasonnicholasschwarz7788]

B/W makes it better.But I still think that this adaption of the novel is the weakest so far.

[@kingkoi6542]

This book is gay and for demoralization, Storm of Steel was much better...

[@albert_the_first]

Its a movie clip

[@harrisonmcarthur7816]

The book was meant to be demoralizing.

@@harrisonmcarthur7816 The dude spent 2 weeks in the war... Compare that to Ernst Junger who spent the entirety of the war. This is Marxist propaganda. The war was not pointless but a struggle for the future of civilization.

People like you are the reason why the film was banned and controversial back in the 30s.

[@TaxEvader08]

Different perspectives by different people. But I'm definitely sure you'd be relating to All quiet rather than storm of steel if you experienced the western front
