Re: Peter Weir

This poll is too hard. I chose Witness, but The Mosquito Coast and Picnic at Hanging Rock are pretty close behind.

Re: Peter Weir

I voted for "Fearless" in part because the subject matter is so compelling. I also read the book on which the film is loosely based on called "Chosen To Live". I can't remember the name of the author who survived the plane crash.

Re: Peter Weir

Admittedly I've only seen about half of these, but I can't imagine liking any of them more than Picnic at Hanging Rock. One of my top-10 all-time favorites.
