From Wikipedia: All Quiet on the Western Front is a television film produced by ITC Entertainment, released on November 14, 1979, starring Richard Thomas as Paul Bäumer, and Ernest Borgnine as Katczinsky. It is based on the book of the same name by Erich Maria Remarque.
The 1979 film was directed by Delbert Mann. The film has its share of tension and death, and in the spirit of the novel, manages to convey a sense of desolation, hardship and waste. Late in the film, the turmoil and wretchedness of the main character, Paul Baumer, is manifested in his extreme disassociation while home on furlough.
