I saw this film when it first showed in the theatres. Peter Weir opened my eyes to what a real film could be. I still think it's one of the best movies ever made, and Weir remains my favourite director of all time.

[@feisalalykhan8403]

Watch Gallipoli.

[@patriciasalem3606]

@@feisalalykhan8403 That's another great film.

[@pinerealty]

I saw it in a large screen movie theater to. I didn't watch it again for years then watch that recently was even better on the second go-round. Works as a thriller and romantic drama. Mel Gibson's best work. Sigourney Weaver at her seductive best.

[@patriciasalem3606]

@@pinerealty And don't forget Linda Hunt! What an amazing performance! I just rewatched it last month. It really stood up over time.

[@black1061]

Amen to that, what a magnificent and timeless creation...Mel, raw and perfect for the complex character...still remember sitting on the edge of my seat, willing him to make it onto that plane.

[@josephinemiller68]

The best movies of the 80s always had Vangelis.

[@rachelle2517]

Yes ...I especially love the original Blade Runner ...that music was stunning 😍

[@JimmySand9]

You can just imagine how awesome it would have been to see and hear him work with John Hughes.

[@gladworld77]

@@JimmySand9 Oh, yeah! And John Candy in the movie! I believe that the Kindness and Wisdom of the Soul are not going anywhere, if so many people feel the trace of the atmosphere left by these directors, actors, musicians - then we will surely manifest these best qualities in our world.

[@donna25871]

This was the only Vangelis piece included - the soundtrack was written by Maurice Jarre.

Her standing at the front door of the last plane out.. desperately hoping he’d show up….was just crushing…unleashing relief.. release… atonement…desire…simply everything else rolled into that one wrenching moment..

[@polemeros]

Gibson and Weaver both at their stunning peak.

[@ronbrown6272]

Such a great movie! The chemistry between Mel Gibson and Sigourney Weaver is fantastic.

[@ninelnita]

A role for which Linda Hunt won the 1983 Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress. "Sukarno feed your people"

[@caligulapontifex5759]

I'll always remember her character's line from the film "What then must you do?"

[@ConstantGardener-q9q]

Such a beautiful, profound movie with so many layers to it. It is not simply a love story.

[@MegaSreis]

It portrays a very important period of World history that is also overlooked. Next time someone goes to Bali, it is good to remember those beaches were once killing camps, 1965/1966. As General Sarwo Eddhie once said, they “proudly killed 3 million”. The events that led to those killings are portrayed in the film. Including the telegram about the weapons for the Indonesian communists. The film was taken in the Philippines, still too dangerous to do it in Indonesia in the 1980’s.

[@Grania52]

Well observed. Billy Kwan's enlightenment of Guy Hamilton about the Wayang shadow play was a brilliant scene.

[@paoloosmena1324]

To the greatness of the Malayan peoples, I pay tribute. From Manila.

[@kepcar]

This would be in everyone's top five movies if they saw it. It's a great film, and this piece matches its greatness perfectly. 10 years later, Hans Zimmer evoked this with his "You're So Cool" for the movie True Romance

[@TheMemoryPolice]

Definately my top 5. And I will love Mel forever no matter what he says or does

[@rumcoke9123]

One of favourite movies of all time. And an incredible soundtrack by Vangelis. Mel Gibson had some great early films...strongly suggest folks watch Gallipoli

[@donna25871]

Maurice Jarre wrote the soundtrack. This was the only Vangelis piece included.

[@user-hq4yi4uo5i]

[@nikolatesla1967]

Quality film making in every regard. Always one of my favorites.

[@ceer3035]

Back when Mel was an absolute charmer.🥰🥰♥️♥️🤗🤗. Great music score.

[@wegotlumpsofitroundtheback5065]

Such an underrated, overlooked movie. I remember seeing it in theaters when I was 14 with my dad. I was completely caught up in the story and LOVED the soundtrack. Sadly, this movie (as well as Weir's other films like "Mosquito Coast" and "Witness") would probably never get made today. The great thing about the early 80s was the rollover from the 70s, which, in my opinion, was probably the greatest era for American cinema.

[@blackbird5634]

Not ''underrated'' at all, Linda Hunt won an Oscar for her role.🥰

[@MannysVisionStudio]

People in today’s era don’t know good cinema anymore. I kind of blame big companies like Disney for bringing way too many superhero and Star Wars movies. These interconnected universe of movies flooded the market and politics leaked into most of them. This era of cinema was the most interesting and creative. Today there’s nothing being created anymore.

[@smugsock]

This did find a huge audience with HBO's and others' upcoming. I found a lot of people had seen it many times, just because it was on their pay channel.

[@MrFlashpacker]

Having watched bits and pieces on You Tube, I bought DVD. It is incredible film. I listen to Vangelis music.

[@patdennehy8564]

[@robam3801]

great film, and a young Sigourney Weaver - beautiful

[@NoName-cv1yp]

The child under the dump truck when it dumps the rice is a scene that is something I will never forget

[@philipc67]

Superb 1983 film, although the ease with which he managed to board that 2pm plane beggars belief. The chemistry between Mel and Sigourney is explosive and Linda Hunt steals the show (and wins an Oscar) as Billy Kwan. This Vangelis leitmotif is magnificent. He had initially planned to use it for the opening sequence of Chariots of Fire (1981) then changed the music to the classic piece we know today.

[@willardsheen981]

I think the odds were against him being able to get on that plane, and he knew it. He was terrified, but knew he had to appear calm in order to stand a chance of boarding. That was what made the scene so tense. A great film.

[@andrewfisher8749]

Ran this at one of the multi-plex I managed in the early 80’s. Many great films we showed because we had extra screens. Great times.

[@jimw.4161]

Brilliant movie and a phenomenal soundtrack. 👍

[@oscarfranco9769]

Esa escena de la lluvia mientras suena está obra de arte, como olvidarla cuando era un adolescente enamorado.

[@jokolelono3979]

the fact is that this film is located entirely in the Philippines, not in Indonesia, when this film was released, the Indonesian government at that time banned this film from circulating in Indonesia

[@MannysVisionStudio]

Man Sigourney Weaver was hot in the 80’s. Insanely beautiful.

[@markl4593]

Well she still is hot in 2025.

The old order ignoring change and the violent disruption of the new order beautifully evoked in this film.
