The Lighthorsemen

The Lighthorsemen is a 1987 Australian movie about the men of the WWI light horse unit, who aided British forces in Palestine in 1917. I saw it on TV in 1988 and have never forgotten it. It's an excellent film.

The movie is based on a true story and most of the characters were based on real people.

You can watch it on You Tube:
