"All Quiet on the Western Front", photographed by Lewis Milestone in 1930, the third Oscar and three prizes, deserves its name, linearly describes the life of a student, Bingge, who abandoned his pen and joined the army, and reflects on the promotion of political propaganda and the emergence of nationalism in the army. Nothingness under absurd logic and motivation. The old film is similar to a stage play. Scene by scene, the connotation you want to express is delicately displayed. Therefore, the smoothness of the plot and the emotions of the actors cannot be required for this film, but this does not affect the depth of its reflection. The film has the title of "one of the greatest anti-war films", rather it is the originator of the genre. Excerpt from the announcement of the male protagonist in front of younger students. I heard you in here reciting that same old stuff, making more iron men, more young heroes. You still think it's beautiful and sweet to die for your country, don't you? We used to think you knew. The first bombardment taught us better. it's dirty and painful to die for your country. When it comes to dying for your country, it's better not to die at all! There are millions out there dying for their countries, and what good is it? You asked me to tell them how much they're needed out there. He tells you, “Go out and due.” Oh, but if you'll pardon me, it's easier to say “Go out and die” than it is to do it. [Coward !
