        I haven’t seen to original 1930 film, but I thought the new one was good, and my impression is that it stayed true to the overarching message of the story in the book. However I’ve heard from others that it isn’t as close to the book in its depiction as the first film.

          The old one is truly beautiful in it’s ironic ending. The main character goes home and sees the young being subjected to the propaganda and he is broken by it. And it’s not even aware that WW2 is right around the corner, so it’s point is so strong looking back in hindsight.
