Front Line is a 1979 Australian documentary film directed by David Bradbury.
It follows the career of Tasmanian-born combat cameraman Neil Davis, particularly his time in South Vietnam and Cambodia during the Vietnam War.[3][4]
It was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature in 1981.[5][6]
The oral consumption of chrome spray paint before combat in George Miller's Mad Max: Fury Road (2015) was inspired by a line in the documentary: soldiers putting the budda charms of their necklaces into their mouths before combat to protect them or to guide them in reincarnation.[2]
