The Other Side (German: Die andere Seite) is a 1931 German War movie directed by Heinz Paul. The young Lieutenant Raleigh (Wolfgang Liebeneiner) is transferred to the company of the disillusioned Captain Stanhope (Conrad Veidt). Stanhope is secretly engaged with Raleigh's sister and versed the image of the model officer. An advance against the German lines, in which also Raleigh participates, becomes a bloody fiasco. Raleigh now recognizes the horrors of war, which have also worn down Stanhope. This is the second adaption of R. C. Sherriff's novel of the same name after the British-American film the previous year. This film was then compared to All Quiet on the Western Front as Germans acting British soldiers and received positive reviews.

Captain Denis Stanhope (Conrad Veidt) uses a Belgian Nagant M1878 revolver during the scene with Lt. Hibbert . Later 2nd Lt. Raleigh (Wolfgang Liebeneiner) is seen with this revolver during the trench raid, too. Perhaps the Nagant revolver stands for correct British Webley Mk VIs.
