Alister Grierson’s film Kokoda (2006) is historically accurate to a limited extent. The film is based on the experiences of 39th Battalion fighting against Japanese forces in the 1942 Kokoda Campaign. The representation of the Australian Soldiers and the Japanese Soldiers were in favour of the Australians. Unbiased representation is important to understand both sides of the war. The problems with food and equipment supply do not quite show in the film‚ although the audience still gets a feel to

One of my favourite lines he says is when he dispassionately executed a woman on a beach‚ and says to his henchman Mr. French‚ "She fell funny." This movie shows the childishness of three of these characters. Colin’s disgust as he is betrayed by Costello‚ Billy’s fear of having nothing to
