Gallipoli - Battle of the Nek: A Staggered Clock
Gallipoli (1981 film)
Gallipoli is a 1981 Australian war drama film directed by Peter Weir and produced by Patricia Lovell and Robert Stigwood, starring Mel Gibson and Mark Lee. The film revolves around several young men from Western Australia who enlist in the Australian Army during the First World War. They are sent to the peninsula of Gallipoli in the Ottoman Empire, where they take part in the Gallipoli campaign. During the course of the film, the young men slowly lose their innocence about the purpose of war. The climax of the film occurs on the Anzac battlefield at Gallipoli, depicting the futile attack at the Battle of the Nek on 7 August 1915.
Early on 7 August 1915, the Nek was the site of a brave but tragic assault by the dismounted 3rd Light Horse Brigade. The charge aimed to attract Turks to the Nek while New Zealand troops seized the heights of Chunuk Bair as part of the August Offensive. The Allies hoped this would distract the enemy at the critical moment, making the Turks who held the trenches at the Nek think that Allied soldiers might be coming down the slopes behind them. This didn't happen as planned. The light horsemen rose from their trenches. They met a hail of bullets. Within 45 minutes, three waves of Australians and part of a fourth wave were cut down. Most men fell before they got near the Turkish lines.
