Gallipoli

AudienceAudience: 7.3

This documentary examines a devastating World War I campaign through diaries, letters, photographs, and memoirs. It follows Australian, New Zealand, British, and Turkish soldiers from early innocence and patriotism toward the hardship and heartbreak of battle.

My take

You’ll appreciate this if you prefer emotionally grounded war documentaries such as They Shall Not Grow Old, but Not for you if you want fictional characters, light entertainment, or a fast-paced action story.
