Summary
Two young men (Mel Gibson and Mark Lee) are brought together in the Australian army in 1915. They cross continents and great oceans, climb pyramids and walk through the ancient sands of Egypt to join their regiment at the fateful battle of GALLIPOLI. Nominated for Best Foreign Film at the **Golden Globes**. Official Selection at the **Venice Film Festival**. "*Weir's work has a delicacy, gentleness, even wispiness that would seem not well suited to the subject. And yet his film has an uncommon beauty, warmth, and immediacy, and a touch of the mysterious, too.*" - Janet Maslin, ***The New York Times***
