This is sadly the truth of war. How Hitler was able to convince Germany it was heroic again is beyond me

+Ben Wasserman when people have little to nothing to hope for, they'll believe anything.

Codebreaker Beautiful commented on 26 Apr 2015

+Ben Wasserman It's easy to draw a parallel to the modern American hate machine and that of Nazi Germany in regards to the press whipping people into a frenzy over things like Terrorism and Religious "Threats". Media and propaganda has advance in it's transmission methods, but the anger and hate it has to power to incite remains just as strong. Some people are ruled by fearful passions as opposed to rational contemplation, and many march under a banner of aggression when subjected to too much bad press for too long. It's subversive brainwashing in a manner of speaking.

David Frigault commented on 26 Mar 2015

+LeHappiste The Germans surrendered when the Russian Revolution got into Germany and caused a civil war in Germany. In other words, half the German Army was fighting for the Communists while the other half was fighting for the Imperial Army. Read up o n the Soviet Bavarian Republic.

Ben Wasserman commented on 04 Dec 2014

True. And as seen in Paths of Glory, they possibly mistook PTSD for cowardice

LeHappiste commented on 04 Dec 2014

Germany surrendered before war reached its soil, so the people could never see the true face of war.Former soldiers who tried to explain what war truly was were censured, like Erich Maria Remarque, the author of the novel this movie is based on.

I think the teacher should shut up.

David Frigault commented on 26 Mar 2015

+DarkBeing18 Based on the timeline this movie takes place and the age of the professor, he looks like he is around 65. However, 45 years earlier, the year was 1870, which was the Franco-Prussian War. Based on how he talked of an "easy walkthrough" I am willing to bet that he was a veteran of the Franco-Prussian War, since that war was decided over a couple of battles early in the war where even Napoleon 3 himself got captured, and the Germans simply marched straight towards Paris almost unopposed afterwards, which means they did take "little" losses, which he talks about at the beginning.

If there's enough only for 150, there would still be 10 of the 80 remaining men with the regular serving.

That's bad acting by Lew Aryes, even by the standards of 1930.

degree7 commented on 26 Feb 2016

A more subdued performance would have been nice, but that's pretty much wanting to have your cake and eat it too.

As hokey as the acting is... this still gives me the heebie-jeebies.

Rocketrollrebel commented on 09 Feb 2016

+The Traveller The acting is a little hokey, but I think that is because these guys were all probably trained as stage actors. So they're used to having to project out to an audience rather than a camera. But nonetheless, a powerful film in so many regards.

The Traveller commented on 26 Jul 2015

+kakashi101able The film's great, not denying that, the acting is just kind of... off, at least by today's standards.

El Senor Don Gato commented on 12 May 2015

I haven't watched it in something like 35 years I think without doing the exact math. It was part of my childhood and adolescence along with Shogun, the Holocaust mini series, Roots, and others I'm probably forgetting. From what I remember of it, it was good enough to leave an impression on me even if I still bought into the Rambo craze later.

El Senor Don Gato commented on 26 Jul 2015

+kakashi101able​ I haven't seen paths of glory but I'll make a point to check it out some. Ironic about certain 80s media. Judging from the plot of Rambo First Blood, it actually had a somwhat anti-govt message, that you can't trust Uncle Sam to take care of its vets. George Bush I think came out and said "Now I know what to do," referring to the movie. What's the asshole saying when the movie starts with the premise that the govt left the vets out to dry?? Reagan coopted the song Born in the USA when the song was really also about the plight of Vietnam Vets who came home to nothing but anguish. So we were all taken in by the 80s Rambo craze and if you're like me you went into the military because of it.

El Senor Don Gato commented on 12 Jul 2014

The acting I think was a little bit unnatural or sentimental. Hollywood at this time I think was heavy with gangster movies and if they were going to make a war movie I think it would've been something like proto John Wayne unless our main characters were Germans and enemies of the U.S. Maybe the only way to make the audience empathize with them was to make to make them overly sentimental. I think the remake with Ernest Borghein and the guy from the Waltons in the 70s came off more natural and less awkward. I don't know if the idea of the sensitive male especially a soldier came natural to the Hollywood of then.

degree7 commented on 11 May 2015

The remake was horrible.

I choose to believe that Paul wanted to die, or at least cared not if he did, knowing from his visit home he can never just 'go home'.

Mitchell McCrory commented on 09 Mar 2016

Beautifully said by the three of you. Well analyzed. Truly is a beautiful get very tragic novel/movie. So inspiring.

Fuckyou commented on 02 Oct 2015

+Ronald Bittner I don't think Paul's death has anything to do with wanting to live or to die, it has to do with wanting peace. Paul has seen enough death and there is no point to it, he reaches out to touch the butterfly to try to reconnect to his life and humanity, but the coldness of war won't allow him to do it. I agree that symbolically the sniper sets him free, like the butterfly, which signifies Paul attaining the peace he wants, but it doesn't solve the horror and futility of war. The butterfly is unattainable.

Ronald Bittner commented on 07 Sep 2015

+Thomas Templeton That's a fair interpretation but i think your second conclusion ("cared not if he did") is more accurate, Paul didn't "want" to die, but death had no meaning to him any more, nor did life. Beauty still meant something to his broken soul, and the butterfly embodies that. It's his last connection with humanity before the sniper sent him to whatever comes next, if anything. Much has been written about Lewis Milestone's brilliant device in recreating the emotion of Remarque's understated telling of Paul's death in the novel; more should be written IMO. Milestone pulled a rabbit out of his hat with this ending.

what a stupid ending

beta0blaster commented on 05 Apr 2016

+Danny Gibbons You missed the whole point of the film if you don't think this ending is the best possible one they could have used

Padraig Hickey commented on 12 Aug 2014

The ending in the 1930 version is way better than in the 1979 version.

Canaan B commented on 01 Mar 2015

agreed 100%

Ashelm56 commented on 06 May 2014

Man, I loved this scene, because of how Paul just dies nonchalantly, one of millions of casualties, instead of in a blaze of glory like you'd expect other war movies to portray the hero as. People too gung-ho on war should probably watch this film a couple of times.

Wessex90 commented on 22 Nov 2015

I think it had such an effect on people that it was banned in ALL countries mobilising for war. What I also like about this story is that it shows the soldiers on both sides were just ordinary men.

Jordan Schlinger commented on 24 Jan 2015

Agreed. It was outlawed by the Nazis in fact because it made people NOT want war.

This is 1930, of course the lighting wasn't that good. But still, it's a really good scene.

I still can't believe this was filmed in 1930, it just seems like a 1950's type film
