When I first recalled director Peter Weir’s 1993 film “Fearless,” I must have subconsciously known how timely it is. And after watching it for the first time in probably over a decade, I see parallels to many of the recent tumultuous events. In many ways, “Fearless” plays like the cinematic gestalt of recent times. After all, 2020 was a year that many would like to forget even happened—with all of the tragic deaths, increased political upheaval and divisiveness, viral hysteria, and so on.
