One of the 1st War Movies I'd seen that was realistic for it's period in time when it was made.

Rating: 8/10 (16 August 2004)

Even though the quality was poor, it's effect on me was dramatical. Compared to the remake (1979) version, that one don't hold a candle to this version. Considering when it was made, etc., still had quite an impact! Maybe it was my age when I saw it but I thought at the time that it was fairly realistic compare to other movies I'd seen about war. Remember, movies, especially talkies, were just coming about in 1930 so one can expect the quality to be poor and the dialog was not all that great BUT it did get the point across that War is HELL! Especially during WWI.
