Peter Weir interview - Inspiration -Benjamin B thefilmbook 

Best director of our time 🎉!!!

Thank you so much for this. My favourite director of all time. I resonate so much with the way he thinks / feels about his art. Great questions / prompts too. Cheers

Peter is a great storyteller who doesn't rely on gimmicks.

He has an Hypnotic effect in every film walking into an Period film like your there experiencing this time.

Very good. Just watched Witness and was profoundly moved.

Thanks for this interview. Can you clarify when exactly was the interview led and who (Benjamin B - in case you are willing to share the full name) has performed the interview (author? cinema critic?). As it seems to have been completed after the release of The Way Back, was it difficult for Benjamin to have access to Mr. Weir for this interview? Thank you very much. Peter Weir is one of the great craftmen of cinema, able to surround himself with the best artists, masters in their domain, from R. Boyd to Alan Splet and from Richard King to John Seale, with a keen and intelligent eye on each subjects that his movies are touching on. We often limit his main themes to isolation (physical such as in Mosquito Coast or psychological such as in Fearless) but the layers of his filmography go far beyond that and can cover his early love from Westerns and Hammer horror movies to an accute look on autority, religion, mateship, or impact of a specific environment on individuals. A quiet Master. Thanks for this video.

Great director !

Genius!

The soundtrack of Witness is awesome. I wonder what role he had in its creation.
