AQOTWF fans watching 1917 be like:

For people who don't get it: the German soldier's name is Baumer and he dies in this scene...

Have you watched all quiet on the western front on Netflix? It’s set at the same time as the movie 1917. The main character is a German soldier with the second name baumer and it reminded me of your 1917 posts . I just thought it was interesting

Not yet and I don't know whether I will or not but this twink

Is very cute and breedable I gotta say so kudos for that. But I doubt my poor little heart can stand another ww movie for a while. I had to keep stopping with writing the Howl update cuz it was wrecking me emotionally how fucking hard these poor little twinks (and everybody else) had it...

Also he could be a cousin of our lovely 1917 Baumer who will definitely be making an appearance in Howl as another omega

Omega friendship? No, omega violenc.

after the dawn. (Paul Baumer x Reader)

pairing: Paul Baumer x Reader

angst

plot: Paul returns from the war, alone. And he’s not the same person who left back in 1917.

The war was over. You read the papers and you couldn’t thank God enough for this horrendous event to be over. But the main question was… “Did Paul survive?”. 

Some of the soldiers came home, no sign of Paul sadly. You were starting to think that Paul ended up dying in battle, the thought of it makes you sob. If he was dead, you never got a chance to say you love him. You loved him ever since you met him in that special place in Osnabruck. You loved him ever since he came up to you and greeted you like a best friend. 

Two days later, you sat on the bench just eating a piece of bread. It was all quiet, no sound but the rustling trees. A person walks up to you, although you were too busy looking down and eating your bread. “Excuse me.” The voice says, it is a very dark tone, no hint of emotion at all. “Pardon?” You ask. “May I sit next to you?” You stop eating for a second and nod your head. “Thank you, (Name).” Wait, that’s confusing. How does this stranger know your name? You look up to see… Paul.

“Paul?!” You stand up quickly and embrace him in a warm hug, but no hug back. You start to caress his cheeks, his face… it’s haunting, uncanny, and unsettling. This wasn’t the same Paul you knew years ago, this is a man who had endured the horrors of war. He just had that blank stare on his face. “Paul… I’m really glad you’re okay.” You break the silence, facing him in an unbreakable glance.

“Yes. I know.” Wow. He really is messed up. Wait. Where are Albert, Franz, and Ludwig? You open your mouth to ask about Paul’s friends, but just as you did, he answers. “They’re dead. Albert, Franz, and Ludwig are dead if you wanted to know.” 

“I’m glad you’re okay, though.” You feel a push and stumble a few feet. Paul, he’s… he’s enraged. “Oh, so their lives didn’t matter more than mine?!” He yells. You were scared. Just overall upset at Paul’s experience and losses of the war. “That’s not what I meant, Paul.”

“(Name), I’m sorry… but everything has changed. I’m not that perfect dream boy you expected me to be when I came back. I lost my friends. They portrayed war as a fantasy that young men like my friends and I wanted to endure and be in.” Paul starts to tear up, your heart breaks at the sight. “I just wanted to be portrayed as a hero, impress my friends, I’m so sorry (Name)... I should’ve listened to you.”

Paul was gripping your shirt as he cried his heart out, and you were starting to tear up too. You loved him so much, and to see him like this hurts you. “Don’t blame yourself…”

“I’m here for you, Paul.”

you think Paul Baumer and the main dude from 1917 (haven't seen the movie yet still reeling from AQOTWF) would be besties outside the war? like who would be the barbie and who would be the ken?

THIS IS A VERY GOOD QUESTION. I feel like I don't have the authority to answer. But I think (hope) they would be buddies.

Book club buddies.

As for who's Ken and who's Barbie I think they are both barbie <3

Also, heavy recommended of 1917 ! I'd love to hear your thoughts. (I am normal and don't bite)

“All Quiet on the Western Front”

Bafta Best Film and Best Director.

The German language anti-war epic, directed by German filmmaker Edward Berger and based on the 1929 novel of the same name by Erich Maria Remarque, triumphed last Sunday scooping seven prizes. The film had 14 nominations on the Bafta longlist – the largest number for any film.

The film, which took home the Bafta for best film and best director, broke Italian coming-of-age drama Cinema Paradiso’s record of five for the highest number of Baftas for a foreign language film in 1988.

“All Quiet on the Western Front” The film follows Paul Bäumer (Felix Kammerer), a young German soldier who experiences the horrific reality of serving on the front line.

Remarque (born Erich Paul Remark) was born in 1898 in lower Saxony to a family of French ancestry; he enlisted in the German army at the age of 18 and headed to fight on the Western Front, where he was wounded five times, the last time seriously. Returning to Germany after the war, he changed his name back to the French spelling.

On November 10, 1928, the first instalment of All Quiet on the Western Front, Erich Maria Remarque’s acclaimed novel of World War I, appears in the German magazine Vossische Zeitung. Edward Berger’s German-language adaptation of Erich Maria Remarque’s All Quiet on the Western Front, itself a remake of the 1930 ‘Best Picture’ winner of the same name, but different from Hollywood war flicks, possesses a tone devoid of cinematic pomposity. This film gives a taste of war that lingers with nightmarish authenticity.

Director Edward Berger's reexamination of Erich Maria Remarque's story about German conscripts hurled into the hell of bloody warfare in WWI.

The protagonist of that novel, All Quiet on the Western Front–its German title, Im Westen nichts Neues literally translates as In the West Nothing New–is Paul Bäumer, a young German soldier fighting in the trenches of World War I. The story opens in 1917 when half of Baumer’s company—many of them schoolmates from back in Germany—has been killed in battle.

Loyal to the novel, Berger’s film tells the story of a teenage boy who enlists in the Imperial German Army alongside his school friends, buzzing with exuberance like the fresh-faced protagonists. Though, as the reality of war sets in and the constructed fantasy quickly dissipates, the friends find themselves stuck in the brutality of one of history’s most violent conflicts.

Bafta: Best original score and sound

The director Edward Berger wanted the film to be created from a German perspective. He tasked composer Volker Bertelmann with the job of creating a score he’s never done before, giving him a few insights into what he wanted for the final cut.

Bertelmann, the composer wanted to use instruments connected to that time period, so he used a refurbished harmonium passed down from his grandmother to create “Destructive” sounds for a unique score.

It's interesting to see in this interview the sequence of scenes connected either by the music.

Volker Bertelmann, is a German pianist and composer, an Academy Award-nominated in recognition of his music for “All Quiet on the Western Front”. Like the British Academy Film Awards (BAFTA), and the music line-up award.

Bafta: Best adapted screenplay

The screenwriters behind All Quiet on the Western Front are Edward Berge, Scottish Triathlete Lesley Paterson, and Ian Stokell Netflix-produced war drama was the greatest success story of this year’s awards, winning Best Film.

The Scottish athlete-turned-writer won a triathlon with a broken shoulder to afford the rights to remake All Quiet on the Western Front - as her dream film won Baftas glory. A five-time world champion triathlete – who used her prize money from the sport to help fund of Bafta film winner and Oscar candidate.

Scottish 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 triathlete Lesley Paterson spent 16 years working on a screen adaptation of the anti-war novel All Quiet on the Western Front

So after meeting director Edward Berger, they pitched the film in Berlin in 2020 as a German language project when Netflix commissioned it. The film’s success is “unbelievable” for a foreign-speaking film: the people are craving “Things that matter.”

Bafta: Best cinematography

The drama balances the violent tragedy of war with stunning cinematography, shot by James Friend. Filmed in the Czech Republic, Friend uses mostly large-format cameras, taking the viewer through the muddy trenches of war and intense, heart-racing battle scenes.

They filmed the scenes at the Western Front trenches at an abandoned ex-Soviet air base in the Czech Republic town of Milovice. The location was a real gem to embark on pictures, as you see in the film.

The next step will be revealed when the 95th Academy Awards take place in Los Angeles on Sunday 12 March.

A first edition of German novelist Erich Maria Remarque's 'Im Westen Nichts Neues',published in Berlin in 1929 in the German. Considered by many the greatest war novel of all time.
