GALLIPOLI (1982)

PETER WEIR

Plot

Two sprinters whose friendly rivalry leads not to the Olympic track but to the World War I battlefront of Gallipoli, a name which even after all these years brings tears to Australians, a place where naive young men were lured to their deaths. A military balls-up of epic proportions, movingly portrayed.
