Amazing picture of raw human emotions
12 November 1998 | by (Canberra, Australia) – See all my reviews

Fearless is Peter Weir at his best. He again mixes fear, love, freedom and life on the screen and pulls his audience into an amazing movie that will capture any heart. It reminds us that we all are human and that we need love and care to survive through the long journey of life. The last scene is brilliantly put together and the use of Henryk Gorecki's haunting 3rd Symphony brings tears to your eyes. A masterpiece
