My great grandfather had a friend in that war .. his family abandoned him and before he died a very painful death , it was supposed to be my grandfather . he told my grandfather, your the only person who brought laughter and joy in my life so I will give you mine.
Ww1 is the saddest war, that generation deserved better. I feel a lingering sorrow for every country and every man involved. Europe destroyed itself for nothing.
Maturing is realizing we go to war because of the leaders we chose to represent us for peace
While countries fight each other, it's people that die. Soldiers have no enemies, they have loved ones.
No man deserves to be treated as a disposable in war.
In peace, sons bury their fathers. In war, fathers bury their sons. Herodotus
It hurts watching those boys and men smiling and joking around while they get suit up, knowing what’s to come afterwards….😢
"The worst part about winning a war is watching your enemy get younger"
My grandfather was a soldier in ww2 and until his death he always talked about his friend who died in the war. He showed me pictures, it was a boy and he was 17 when he died. He visited his grave every year on his birthday for more than 70 years.
“War is not hell. It’s worse. In Hell,there are no innocents.” There’s many arguments in the replies. Chill out.
Another sad part of them getting dressed up scene is that the character sees his jacket had a name tag of someone else previously
For anyone interested, this movie is called All Quiet On The Western Front. It's an incredible movie and brought tears to my eyes. It really highlights the lingering sorrow and sadness from WW1 and puts the perspective of the soldiers in a whole new light. Definitely give it a watch if you haven't already.
The soul shattered thing about winning battles is that your enemies keep getting younger 😢😢
This is why these kinds of movies scare me more than any horror movie. These things actually happened, and can happen again. This was real, something people did and had to live through. Horror movies just scare you, but you know that they aren't real. Edit: Dam, thanks for the likes. Never gotten so many before. And I've never found anyone else who has agreed with me on this. Edit: Okay, yes, I know it's happening again. I just said it in that form to get a point across
"I cant do this, i wanna go home!" That was heart breaking idk why.
"War is far better if only the kings who fought since it's their matters"
War doesn’t determine who is right, only who is left.
My history teacher showed me this and i remember sitting in my chair almost crying at some of the parts... I think its one of my favorite war movies because it just portrays it perfectly
Veterans thank you for your service❤
