Description: All Quiet on the Western Front (2002, DVD) NEW in shrink wrap Richard Thomas (The Waltons) stars in a powerful and dramatic adaptation of Erich Maria Remarque's acclaimed novel All Quiet On The Western Front. A devastating story of war and a generation destroyed. At the rise of World War I, German patriot Paul Baumer (Thomas) and his friends enlist in the Imperial German Army. In search of adventure and eager to assert the superiority of their nation, the young men endure a brutal training camp and soon find themselves face to face with the full horrors of war when they are sent to the front lines to fight…and likely die. During their brutal basic training disenchantment begins; then boarding a train for the front they see the wounded being rushed back to hospitals. They begin to grasp the grim reality of war. On their first night in action, they come under heavy attack. In the trenches they begin to fall. Their youth is stripped away by the violence and the boys become as sullen as veterans. As the conflict rages, Paul grows from an eager boy to a disillusioned man who bears the scars of war on both his body and his soul. Wounded, he returns home to a different world, a place where he cannot fit in. Sent back into battle he meets destiny on a day when the German High Command Communique states simply All Quiet on the Western Front. Ernest Borgnine (The Dirty Dozen), Donald Pleasence (The Great Escape), Ian Holm (Alien) and Patricia Neal (Hud) also star in a gripping coming-of-age tale set in the shadow of war.
