Gallipoli…the last 45 minutes are as intense as any other war movie, but in a different way. The ending chokes me up every time.

My younger brother was a ranger in Somalia during the BHD situation. He still won’t watch the movie.

That was a rough scene. The actor was Adam Goldberg. I was actually in a video with him for Sixpence None The Richer’s “There she goes”. He talked about it a bit and said it was a pretty surreal scene to shoot -had to get in a body cast.

It’s on netflix – I may have spelled it wrong though…

You’re related to Rob Roy? That’s awesome… I did see that movie.

P.P.S. – And yeah, that scene is indelibly etched in my brain, for all time. Like the scene in Private Ryan where the Jewish kid from NY is fighting hand-to-hand in the bell tower with the German, and gets killed when he runs out of energy and the German slowly slides the knife into his heart…

Oh, Keith, I didn’t mention before, I’ve never seen Joyeaux Noel, but your list is so dead on you’ve got me totally intrigued, so it’s not only made onto my “must rent” list it’s in my top 3. Have to see if it’s even on Netflix…

And Steve: Great call on “Braveheart”. Gotta be in my top 20 all-timers, of ANY genre.

And since we’re on the subject of Scottish subjugation and oppression, how ’bout “Rob Roy”? My ancestor (Rob Roy MacGregor) and clan’s only time in the spotlight, our family’s proverbial “15 minutes of fame”, front and center… And a great movie on fighting through oppression, tyranny and rallying wildly disparate and historically distrusting and in-fighting groups (clans, in this case) into a unified solidarity to kick the oppressor’s butts (but fighting through a lot of stuff prior to that).
