As part of Honors 2000, the Honors College faculty is screening four films about the First World War. All Quiet on the Western Front, the third installment of the series, is based on Erich Remarque’s 1928 novel. The movie won Academy Awards in 1930 for Best Director and Outstanding Production and was nominated for Best Writing and Best Cinematography. In 1998, the American Film Institute (AFI) included All Quiet on the Western Front in its “100 Greatest Movies of All Time.” In 2007, it was recognized by AFI as one of the ten greatest films in the epic genre.
