Peter Weir's Fearless is a rich, meaningful film that explores the intricacies of human trauma and guilt. Jeff Bridges and Rosie Perez give brilliant performances as plane crash survivors. It is directed by Weir, and although the movie garnered critical acclaim, it remains slightly less recognized in the shadow of Weir's big hits, like Dead Poets Society and The Truman Show.
