"Easy Scapegoat” ITF Watch: All Quiet on the Western Front (2022 film) ft. Tom Leonard
Edward Berger’s modern retelling of Erich Maria Remarque’s landmark novel won multiple awards but made some significant changes to the source material. In episode 266, Luke & James are joined by history teacher Tom Leonard to debate how effective the changes were, delve into the real-world history, recognize Chekov’s smoking goose, and ultimately each cast their votes on what was the better version: the book or the movie.
