Opinions on Der Hauptmann?
It was more gruesome than I expected and it showed the situation in Germany's most isolated areas and a concentration camp. It was pretty hard to watch because the MC goes in a stupid powertrip trying to fake him being an officer to get a taste of the good german life. I like it almost as much as Im Westen nichts Neues.

>he is sitting in the trenches alone on a peaceful day and sees a bird land on one of the only branches in no man's land.
>He starts sketching it, stands forward a bit to get a better look, and gets sniped
This is better than dying while staring at a butterfly though it is more stupid but I guess it fits the theme of the novel. Still, I prefer the movie's ending. He's not exactly a hero because he just saved one person, he's just a poor guy forced to kill to survive after enlisting due to propaganda and thinking it would get him laid.
