5. All Quiet on the Western Front - directed by Lewis Milestone (1929/1930; 2 Oscars)
As long as wars are fought, there will be two sides: those who are so patriotic that they cannot see the brutal realities of war and those that can because they actually have to fight. All Quiet on the Western Front shows the contrast of these two sides during World War I to surprising perfection. This timeless story of boys who go off to war, only to find out just how horrible it is, can never age, even if the filming techniques permanently place the acting and style of the film in the early sound era.
