THE version to be seen!

This is THE version of "All Quiet on the Western Front" that must be seen! Nothing else can compare (except the book). Note that this DVD format has had some enhancement done to the original film and was re-issued in 1999. Lew Ayres is fantastic and "gets it right". The film footage is quite dated but this adds to the realism. The DVD version seems to have some enhancements but a speaker system is unnecessary because it's still mono. A story with meaning behind it and fairly realistic of WWI from the common German infantry man point of view. Definately belongs in the library of a historian or militaria collector. Prior to family viewing, an adult should review the film because portions of it may be questionable for children (it's really more of a young adult upwards movie). This review is based on the movie only, I have no idea who the potential seller may be.
