simond9x Posted 30 January , 2018 Share Posted 30 January , 2018 This was (re)released today but, so far, I can only find it available from Criterion in the US. Does anyone know if it is to be made available in the UK? https://www.criterion.com/films/28137-westfront-1918 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Broomfield Posted 30 January , 2018 Share Posted 30 January , 2018 Sincerely hope so. I saw this (on BBC2) about 45 years ago and I must say it was/is brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought it thoroughly better than All Quiet on the Western Front. Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9.5mm Posted 30 January , 2018 Share Posted 30 January , 2018 (edited) Criterion usually do a good job with their restorations. I'd be interested to see the French TV programme with the veterans responding to the film in 1969, which is one of the DVD extras. I don't know about a UK release, but you can view the unrestored film here:Westfront 1918: Edited 30 January , 2018 by 9.5mm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
