Great film review.

Gallipoli is one of my favorite Aussie films (though I often get it confused with The Lighthorse Brigade, as I think I saw them at about the same time when I was young). I think that along with Breaker Morant and The lighthorse brigade, Gallipoli shows much about Australia's attitude to war, and as such are a must see group of films.

I like the way that, in your review, you did more then just tell plot, and talked about the greater impact of the movie as well as the setting. Even though I am the complete couch patatoe when watching films, getting my enjoyment from the least amount of mental effort possible, I like movies that have more in them, as I find that they are generally better thought out and of a higher quality, and so I like these aspects explored in a review.

great work, I'll definitly be adding your topic to my subscription list.
