metz had the last question, has this been answered or what??

starliteyes, want this or open?

????

anyone catch this one early today? Not sure if a premiere, but I hadn't seen it before. Gotta agree w/Maltin review here, a German version of AQOTWF, without the sentiment or speechifying 3:00 AM 93 min war Westfront 1918 (1930) German soldiers face terror and despair on the front lines during World War I. Cast: Gustav Diessl , Claus Clausen , Else Heller . LEONARD MALTIN REVIEW: D: G. W. Pabst. Fritz Kampers, H. J. Moebis, Claus Clausen, Gustav Puttjer, Jackie Monnier, Hanna Hoessrich, Vladimir Sokoloff. "Pabst's first sound film is a bone-chilling, unrelentingly bleak--and ultimately pacifistic--account of German soldiers battling their French counterparts in the trenches during WW1. Without the benefit of modern special effects, Pabst creates a vividly realistic, horrifying view of war, and effectively contrasts the tedium and sudden bedlam universally experienced by soldiers. Makes an intriguing double-bill with his KAMERADSCHAFT (1931). As powerful an antiwar statement as ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT"

any hints?

Okay, flash....Practical Magic next: "The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated. "

thread's open....

& just why are we assuming the hosts have seen (or must see) all the movies for which they read the intros anyway? Unless they're giving personal opinions as to content or quality. (like Bob & Ben's Picks) Though it bothers me more when "guest programmers" pick films with little knowledge of, or reasons for their selections (Cloris Leachman being most glaring example), just for a little air time to plug their latest $ venture (book, tv show, movie, etc.)

& in some circles there are those that feel not all members of the Academy view all the films for which they vote

hey, I hate folks who correct people around here, but think you mean Fredric March & Betty Field from "TTW" This is one of my fav goofy Nazi flicks too & ain't Skippy a hoot as the little psycho?

thanks, lavender, but brain's on empty thread's open....

Quite a riveting film, wasn't it? Pretty Hitchcockian (never sure which way it was headed) & excellent performances by everyone

Nice idea for a thread (tried just 'liking', but seems I've reached my 'quota of positive votes' for the day) What's up with that QUOTA anyway?? Just how many daily LIKES are allowed?? And why the limit anyway???
