11/06: The Red Badge of Courage is a nice, short, and sweet picture about war but feels too ordinary to wow me.

All Quiet on the Western Front had already accomplished many goals that The Red Badge of Courage was trying to reach. The battle scenes come off as weak which is a disappointment given John Huston is the director.

All in all, it's better to see Lewis Milestone's Best Picture winner All Quiet on the Western Front over The Red Badge of Courage.
