Beneath Hill 60 (2010)

Director, Jeremy Sims. (122min)
Drawing on the activities of the 1st Australian Tunnelling Company on the Western Front, this recent Australian film won generally positive accolades for its depictions of the war underground and the stresses and dangers of the tunnellers’ war. Although it plays to the apparent need in Australian films to caricature British officers, the general presentation of the realities of war on the Western Front is plausible and convincing.
