The 2023 BAFTA Film Awards longlists were unveiled this morning, and an unexpected frontrunner emerged in Netflix’s wartime epic All Quiet On The Western Front.
The German-language film led the pack, appearing in 15 categories. The film was longlisted in all nine technical categories and nabbed an impressive set of appearances on the Best Film, Director, and Adapted Screenplay lists alongside a Film Not In English language nod.
Directed by German filmmaker Edward Berger, the film is a new take on the classic 1929 novel by Erich Maria Remarque. The film tells the story of a young German soldier, played by Felix Kammerer, on the Western Front of World War I as he learns how the initial euphoria of war turns into desperation and fear as he fights for his life.
The pic debuted at TIFF. Daniel Brühl, Sebastian Hülk, Albrecht Schuch, and Anton von Lucke also star. Netflix’s All Quiet showing is the largest haul a non-English language film has achieved during BAFTA’s longlist voting stage, which was first launched in 2021.
