With the passage of time this film holds it's own.

Rating: 9/10 (20 August 1999)

This motion picture is nearly 70 years old and the message it sends is still as powerful as it was when it first came out. An anti-war film that was years ahead of it's time. Younger audiences would probably not be able to identify any of the actors/actresses in this film and the 1979 TV version remake may be better suited for them as the story is the same one with a few minor variations. Many of the old films from the 30's become harder to watch and enjoy simply because of their age and film techniques. However this one continues to hold it's own.
