There is a description in "All Quiet on the Western Front" that is very similar to the scene in the movie where Rival kills Franz - the silence is creeping. I want to speak, I have to speak. So I spoke to him: "Comrade-in-arms, I don't want to kill you. If you jump in again, I won't do that, as long as you are cool-headed. But before, you were an idea and a living thing to me. The reasoning in my head. It made me make up my mind - that was the reasoning I stabbed to death. Now I know, you are a man like me, and all I think about is your grenade, your bayonet, you weapons - now I see your wife, your face, and what we have in common. Forgive me, comrades! We always figure it out too late. Why hasn't anyone told us that you are as poor as we are? You Our mother fears for us as much as our mothers. We fear death the same. We have the same death, the same pain—forgive me, comrade in arms! How can you be my enemy if we drop our weapons and take off our uniforms You'll be my brother like Carter, Albert. Take twenty years from me, comrade in arms, stand up - take more. Because I don't know what to do with the rest of my life."
Of course, "All Quiet on the Western Front" nakedly exposes the cruelty of World War I; while "Franz" uses the small cut of Anna's love to let the audience feel the devastation of war on people, whether they are alive or not. already dead.
