Breaker Morant is one of my all time favorites. The same director also did "Gallipoli" which stars a very young Mel Gibson (it was filmed in Australia) is also a great flick. I think the director's name is Peter Weir. I could look it up but I'm to lazy.

I love that movie. I have bored more girlfriends in the past by making them watch Breaker Morant.
Another good Australian movie of that era was The Light Horsemen.

You need to add The Australian Light Horse and ANZACs Down Under to your movie list. Both are about the Great War.

BREAKER MORANT was directed by another Aussie, Bruce Beresford.
