Very compelling movie which follows a group of German students through graduation to the end of the WWI. SO many people died during that war - you get a pretty good idea of what it must have been like for soldiers in general, as well as for those who fought on the losing side. It was a good movie, and has aged very well, but the ending was a trite way to emphasize that deaths still occured while awaiting official word of the armistace. Plus, on the personal side, there are always mixed feelings when you feel bad for the people who were fighting for the bad guys.
