ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT
TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET
This early sound film, one of the boldest anti-war movies ever made, is a milestone movie – and not just because its director is Lewis Milestone. Released in 1930, this version of Erich Maria Remarque’s gripping novel about life (and death) in the German trenches painted a portrait of WWI that came before, but didn’t prevent the German enthusiasm for, what became known as WWII. Lew Ayres stars.
