"Only the dead have seen the end of war."

[SoftieSauce]

This movie is so aggressively painful. Theres no time to know the characters. You dont meet them in a classroom, or watch them grow up. They are just young men sold a dream of glory and patriotic ideals. And then they are dead.

And thats it, their dead

And for some reason thats so much worse than "knowing" them. Because as the movie goes on you desire to know them. And they die you know they will never get to know themselves before their deaths.

0:14 imagine youre one of those women and you find the name of your husband, brother, son or even neighboor or friend in one of the uniforms. The movie already starts off so devasting

This movie is the one of the very few movies that actually made me feel REAL emotions for the characters (and the movie it self) this was a masterpiece of a movie and much better then most film we have in the present. I was so destroyed and shocked when the last main character died. I almost cried.

War does not determine who is right - only who is left.
-Bertrand Russell

I watched this movie at class, i was the only one really paying attention, it left me in tears. I searched for some spec of hope to be left but war leaves nothing, 3 minutes before the cease fire. How many died because something that was already agreed on ending had to be dragged on till last minute? It's terrifying how little politicians value their people's lifes, it's madness.
I think its the best anti-war movie, because you arent left with one glimpse of glory, reality of war is ugly, children are dying everyday because monsters of human beings just can never have enough.

Read the book in 8th grade. Being a lousy student. I didn't really 'read' the book, but I did read when the main character had been stuck in the little ditch with the other soldier who had cut in the throat, I believe. That scene hurt me.

[tikagiri]

I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation. War is hell.
-William Tecumseh Sherman

[blackknight]

This fits so well😢

( In memory of every soldier's life, who was pointlessly squandered in World War 1.)


In the trenches, a ghost does dwell,
Where the horrors of war, only time can tell.
Whispers of loss, echoes of pain,
A haunting reminder, amidst bloodstained rain.

Soldiers once young, now weary and old,
Their stories of bravery, forever untold.
Screams in the night, the silence of dread,
A ghost in the trenches, where hope has fled.

Barbed wire and mud, a chilling sight,
Men torn apart, in the darkness of night.
Gone are the dreams, of a future so bright,
Replaced by the ghost, in the cold, endless fight.

So let us remember, the ghost in the trench,
The sacrifice made, in a world so drenched.
Lest we forget, the horrors of war,
And strive for a future, worth fighting for.

Some people on internet : War is so fun 😝
They really don’t see the reality of wars.

[jhoyrando]

Please not that traumatizing movie, I cried so hard because of their struggles. The MC dies in this movie, and his comrad does too as they get out of war..

[Blossomthebunne]

I never watched the movie, but this genuinely almost made me cry because of how much I didn't know and the pain you could see in his eyes

[ilovefish]

This is brutal this is by far the best war film I’ve ever seen! No Hollywood celebrities or big flashy shots just dark and raw. The book is brilliant!

[piterjacksonpl]

this song fits so well, great song.
unfortunietley many are gonna end up like paul considering current situation in the world.
im 16 years old im from Poland, and i wanna go to military, if i have to die for my country i will. so you can say im an "army dreamer"

(sorry for bad english)

[Mafuyuu]

This movie and the song combined it's so, i don't know, melancholic?

The movie it's a masterpiece. The ambient sound, the looping of the stories, the fact that they were just young and thought they were doing something meaningful and saw the war not as something really serious, only after seeing their comrades dead, they realized the life they were living. And then we are shown that everyone who participated in the war had a family, everyone on the battlefield had no choice but to fight. It's something cruel and heartbreaking, after you realise that this really happened in real life, It's even sadder.

War is a horrible thing, I hope something like that never happens again.

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO MAKE AN EDIT OF ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT WITH THIS SONG AND NOW ITS FINALLY HERE!!! TYSM FOR THIS BEUTIFUL EDIT :)

[W_Konig]

This is so sad and heartbreaking but beautiful at the same time, I love it.

[Yeetsomething]

I somehow feel related to this song but the closest I've felt is I was born a military brat up until I was 11 but now I want to join the military and every time I listen to this song I imagine the Notification officer telling my parents I that I have died on deployment and I imagine them breaking down. I also have good grades in my high school so I relate to the "he should've been a politician" and I imagine my mother telling the officer all of the things I could've been.

[esternocleidomastoideo-dhbp]

If you’ve watch the movie, you know how well the song fits the movie

[BaoMyLeNguyen-eexc]

I've been watch alot of war theme movie, read alot of books 'bout war but this's the first time I cry for a movie abt that
