Film7.8DramSavaşBir grup acemi genç Alman askerinin, 1.Dünya Savaşı sırasında büyük bir idealizmle başlayan hikayelerinin, hayal kırıklığıyla sonuçlanmasını anlatıyor. Başrol oyuncusu Lew Ayres’in canlandırdığı Paul Baumer’in repliği, filmin konusunu da özetliyor: “Siperlerde yaşıyor ve savaşıyoruz. Ölmemeye çalışıyoruz, tek yaptığımız bu” Modası çabuk geçen pek çok mesaj filmlerinin aksine, Erich maria Remarque’nin savaş karşıtı romanından uyarlanan filmin etkisi yıllar sonra bile hiç azalmamıştır. Lewis Milestone’nun ölçülü, sade ve insanı derinden etkileyen çalışması, yıllar sonra bile pek çok ülkede yasaklıydı.
