The movie, Gallipoli, is about Australia's past and the beginning of the ANZAC tradition. The ANZAC tradition incorporates 'mateship/courtship' and courage, as well as a range of other Australian qualities and themes.Gallipoli took too very different Australian's, with two very different views on war and made a friendship from it, and this friendship grew throughout the film. Although Archy and Frank were both athletes, this is the only thing they have in common.
Gallipoli gave a good insight into the the horror of the whole Anzac campaign and on a larger scale that of war itself, one thing was nice was the way the campaign was presented from an Australian perspective which kiwis find surprisingly similar to their own.
The movie, “Gallipoli”, and the book, “All Quiet on the Western Front”, have very similar themes and story lines. They both revolve around the friendship between young men throughout warfare.

After visiting the front for long stretches Paul is given fourteen days of leave where he can visit his ill mother at his own home.After this leave he is sent back to training and then back to the front. His trip is lcur short when he discovers that his unit has been reassigned to another area.Finding his unit, he reunites with his friends and joins up with them again in the war efforts.While searching in "no man's land," Paul is confined to a shell hole for a long night. During this night a French soldier falls in the hole and Paul stabs him. The hours were very hard for Paul as he look on and waits for the Frenchman to die. Paul's group has a stroke of luck when they were assigned to defend a village. Since no inhabitants were left they were able to go through the houses to take and use whatever they wanted. One day the French came and began shelling the village. While getting away from all this Paul and his friend Albert Kropp were injured by gunshot wounds.They were sent to get some aid and sent on a train back home.
This ride home was bad. When Kropp got a fever he was suppose to be dropped off at the next stop. For Paul to stay with his friend, he had to convince the nurse that he also was sick from infection. After being dropped off they were taken to a Catholic hospital to be treated. After a few weeks Kropp's leg is better with infection and is amputated at the thigh. After a few more weeks Paul and Kropp went their own ways, Paul going back to the war and Kropp going home.Returning to the front was hard for Paul. The days were getting cold and one by one he watched his friends die. The hardest loss was that of Kat. After Kat had been shot, Paul had to carry Kat to the nearest dressing station a few miles away. Stopping every few minutes to rest, Paul contantly checked to make sure that Kat, even with his injury, was ok.Finally Paul reached the dressing station the nurse told him that Kat was dead. When Paul checked again a small shell fragment had just penetrated the back of Kat's head.He was still even warm.Kat was the last of Paul's friends to die in the war.Then, in October of 1918, Paul finally fell.The book describes his death as, "...his face had an _expression of calm, as though almost glad the end had come." The war ended the next month.
