Today, we revisit the Anzac spirit with a twist in this 1990 Commonwealth Games promo, directed by Lee Tamahori 🎥
The ad depicts the Western Front trenches of 1917, where soldiers from across the British Empire channel the Games’ competitive energy. Amid the mud and mayhem, familiar Kiwi faces — Bruno Lawrence, Ian Mune, Tony Barry, and a young Joel Tobeck — place their bets on who will be the fastest.
