About Peter Weir

Homesdale opened in 1971 with hunting lodge games, Cars That Ate Paris in 1974 with wreck town, and Picnic at Hanging Rock in 1975 with school vanish and panpipes. Last Wave followed in 1977 with Sydney dreams, Plumber TV in 1979, and Gallipoli in 1981 with mates run to trenches.

Year of Living Dangerously came in 1982, Witness in 1985 with barn raising, Mosquito Coast in 1986, Dead Poets in 1989 with desk stands, Green Card in 1990, Fearless in 1993, Truman Show in 1998 with dome reveal, Master and Commander in 2003, and Way Back in 2010. Retirement confirmed in 2022. Watch in release order for the group pressure theme.

Good to know

These are standalone stories with no shared continuity, so there is no chronological order to untangle. Release order shows the Australian New Wave eye move into Hollywood craft with ensemble pressure. Truman Show is the hinge to watch after Poets captain. Way Back in 2010 is the final feature released, with retirement since.
