Post a pic or a quote from a movie and see if we can figure out what movie it's from.

Wow -- I never realized before how much Orson Welles looked like Ernest Hemingway.

Bingo!

Ok, time to make it harder.

I have actually seen this movie. The book was much, much better. Of course this movie was made in about 1930.

Is it Cagney?

It's not Cagney, I actually don't know who it is. Truthfully it was horrible acting compared to today.

I'm sure most of you have read the book. Probably in H.S.

I'll give you two clues.

1. It revolves around a young German mans experience as a soldier in WWI.

2. The very last line in the book & movie is also the title.

It took me a minute but, I could almost hear Sean Penn's voice in my head.

When I was in college, we had no cable tv and only owned that movie. Goes without saying that I've seen it a few times.
