All Quiet on the Western Front (1979)
This week, the fellas discuss the 1979 adaptation of All Quiet on the Western Front... this time on the SMALL screen! They talk all about Ian Holm's standout performance, the lack of differences between this and the 1930 original, Jason not liking any of the Paul Baumers so far and much more. Plus: a debate about the "murky" look of the film.
Next week: A new movie! Oscar-nominated!
