Gallipoli

August 11, 2005
A wrenching 1981 tale of thousands of Australian soldiers sent to fight the Turks in 1915 in one of the bloodiest and stupidest military campaigns of the 20th century. Thank the late, great Winston Churchill for that one, folks. Anyway, a very young Mel Gibson stars as one of the young Aussie troopers caught in the big World War I battle, and this 1981 picture doesn't shy away from the ensuing bloodshed. Rated PG/111 min.
