Luna Palace In Perth is running a Q&A screening of the Turkish Gallipoli film with the director. It’s tomorrow night.
The most comprehensive film ever made on the subject of Gallipoli, directed by Tolga Ornek and narrated by Jeremy Irons and Sam Neill. Produced over 6 years, GALLIPOLI uses newly uncovered diaries, letters and photographs from both sides; interviews with international experts; on-location landscape, underwater and aerial photography; 3-D computer animations and dramatic re-enactments of trenches and battles.
Australian military historian Brad Manera, an expert on costumes and weapons, traveled to Turkey during the main shoot to check the historical accuracy of every detail in every scene.
