Chuck BryantHOST
Thank you for bringing back some vivid memories from my eighth grade reading class, uh, too many decades ago to admit.
Chuck BryantHOST

Chuck BryantHOST
Uh, to hammer home what we read, he would incorporate details of the book into a little imaginary coin toss he did each day to determine whether the boys or girls got to go first and, uh, walk to lunch in single file line.

Director Edward Berger is a German filmmaker who spent years working in European film and television before breaking through internationally with the 2022 Netflix adaptation of All Quiet on the Western Front.
IanHOST
The original film adaptation of the 1929 novel of the same name, directed by Lewis Milestone, won Best Picture at the third Academy Awards ceremony and Berger's version was nominated for Best Picture and ultimately won four Academy Awards, including Best International Feature.
IanHOST
Berger followed it with Conclave, another award season hit that earned eight Oscar nominations and won Best Adapted Screenplay.
IanHOST
See, he wasn't the sole source of interest for me.

All Quiet on the Western Front was too brutal for me.
