In the movie Gallipoli I believe that the director was a bit confused, because when Archie and Frank were training for the war at the start of the movie the way the director showed all the friends they were making and also all of the fun they were having partying made it like it was good to join the army. But then closer to the end of the movie when all of those Australians where getting slaughtered especially when Archie got shot at the end was like it was bad to join the army. So the movie was partly sad but also a quite funny and happy movie.
The part of the movie in which affected me the most would’ve had to been the ending, which was the part where Archie was shot three times in the chest. It affected me because according to the movie Archie and all of his fellow soldiers didn’t need to die. If Frank got there on time Archie and the other soldiers wouldn’t have ran out of the trenches where they had died.
In the World War One Gallipoli movie it was both sad and happy at times, the director showed the good and bad during war. The good side of the movie would have been when Archie and Frank were making new friends when they were partying and also all the laughs they had. The sad part of the movie was when Archie had died at the very end.
Thank you for reading my short blog on the movie Gallipoli I hope you enjoyed it and learnt something new.
I know what you mean when you say that “The part in the movie which affected me the most would’ve had to been the ending.” It was sad how the general person wanted them to keep on attempting to push forward even though they were getting killed straight out of the trench. If only there was better communication between everyone and the watches were all synchronized
i agree with your point of view that at the start of the movie it looked like it was fun to join the army and explore but towards the end of the movie it was really sad and it made it look bad to join the army. but in the army you have your highs and lows but the lows kind of out done the highs because well your either injured or dead but the time they had together (Archie and frank) was also good
