Rewatching Oscar

All Quiet on the Western Front (1929/30)

Jack Ferdman Season 5 Episode 70

There are very few extra-special films in the history of cinema that not only stand the test of time, they really changed the way we look at history in general ... fictional films that make us see real life in a truly different manner.  Lewis Milestone's All Quiet on the Western Front did just that. It took our perspective of war and turned it on its head by having us see the world of the enemy soldiers.  This film is so technically brilliant and the acting is first-rate. This is a remarkable piece of filmmaking. However, was this Best Picture winner, in retrospect, still deserving of the honor of best film of 1929/30?

Listen to film critic Jack Ferdman's take on it as he analyzes everything about All Quiet on the Western Front, as well as many other films from that year, and hear which film he gives his Rewatch Oscar of 1929/30.
