A second film version (the first was made in 1930) of Erich Maria Remarque's story about a group of idealistic young Germans recruited to fight on the Western Front in 1914. Amongst their number is the patriotic Paul Baumer (Richard Thomas), whose preconceptions are rapidly shattered upon witnessing the horror of life at the front. Ernest Borgnine, Donald Pleasence and Ian Holm also star.

Adaptation of the cult novel by Kurt Vonnegut, directed by George Roy Hill and starring Michael Sacks, Ron Leibman and Eugene Roche. Billy Pilgrim (Sacks) is a young soldier in the Second World War who is captured by the Germans and sent to a POW camp. While being taken there to be imprisoned he witnesses the firebombing of Dresden, an event which causes him to be 'unstuck in time' and results in him living his life simultaneously as a POW, an optician in present day America, and as an elderly abducted resident of an alien zoo on the planet Tralfamadore.
