'Changi' is to me one of the very best mini-series about WWII ever produced. No, the 2007 TV-movie 'Curtin' is a film I didn't know about. I thank yo for that one.

The Sullivans, or The Fighting Sullivans as it is also called, is an American film, not an Australian. The lists I create are about the countries or origin.
No mate...'The Sullivans' was a long running Australian television show...England bought it and it ran their too...ser before the war, following a typical Melbourne family with a daughter and three sons...the war came and all three eventually signed up.
To clarify: The Sullivan's: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0075281/ The Fighting Sullivan's: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0037323/

You can always rate the topic, an under utilized function IMO. Not sure what will happen when the boards change though.
