I'm looking to buy a copy of this classic (the original 1930 version, not the 1979 remake with John Boy Walton).
The listings on ebay all indicate that this is a widescreen release; even the cover art clearly states "widescreen" across the top of the cover.
I know they didn't do widescreen in 1930. One of the ebay listings states "THIS IS THE WIDESCREEN 1930 VERSION OF ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT . IT WAS RENEWED IN 1958 , & THIS CONTAINS RESTORED FOOTAGE".
Anyone know what's going on with this? Are (presumably OAR) fullscreen DVDs available?
Thanks,
Jon
