If All Quiet on the Western Front hit the spot, these will too

Common ground in both: army and germany
The difference: Made in the 1950s, in a different era of the craft

Both are built on the same subject: black and white

Both land stillness and bleakness at once

Contemplative drama, and it commits to that


One thread runs through both: world war i
The difference: Played as history first

War with a pulse of bleakness, in both cases
The difference: The critics' underdog of the pair

Both lean on stillness more than on drama


Both are drama through and through


Drama approached the same way
