Try Force Z, The Desert Rats, and just about anything with Chips Rafferty.
Not that they don't do WW 2 movies, the Aussies have a unique feel for WW 1. Think The Lighthorsemen, Anzacs, and Gallipoli.

I've seen "Gallipoli" and have "Desert Rats" in my queue, thanks for the others.

No worries, enjoy them all. Check Anzacs and Lighthorsemen for a hidden actor from Mad Max the Road Warrior.

Twenty years ago we had Johnny Cash, Bob Hope and Steve Jobs. Now we have no Cash, no Hope and no Jobs....

It's available in VHS and non-USA format on DVD for 20.99
If your DVD player will play any format this film is worth 20.99, I've seen it a couple time on VHS and would like to see it again.
