Mel Gibson and Peter Weir talk about death threats while shooting The Year of Living Dangerously.

(PLEASE SUBSCRIBE - IT'S FREE) The Year of Living Dangerously was one of Mad Max star Mel Gibson’s earliest films, co-starring with Sigourney Weaver and Linda Hunt. While based on the real-life events of revolution in Indonesia in 1966, but shot in the Philippines and Australia, threats to the lives of the cast and crew added a dangerous dimension to the making of the film In fact, director Peter Weir and the producers decided to quit the Philippines and move the production back to Sydney to complete the shoot. The teaming of Mel and Sigourney worked well, but the eye-catching, and Oscar winning, performance came from actress Linda Hunt, as a local video-camera man. The casting of Hunt’s character, Billy Kwan, had been a lengthy challenge for Weir. Gibson was just 26 when he made the film, playing an Aussie journalist caught up in the cross-fire of the revolution and local politics. Only a year before, he had co-starred in another Peter Weir film, the powerful World War I movie Gallipoli. Shortly after the film was released in,1982, Mel and Peter talked to me about their experiences shooting The Year of Living Dangerously, and Hunt’s casting and performance, While Mel was born in the US, he spent his teenage years and much of his 20’s growing up in Australia. Hence the Aussie accent Over the decades, he’s been named The Sexiest Man Alive and voted one of the 50 Most Beautiful People in the World. Now in his mid-60’s, Mel has resurrected his career after a few bumpy years involving controversies - over drink driving and other incidences, including derogatory comments about Jews and women. He has since apologised for those outbursts. Mel is expected to appear in a number of TV and film productions during 2022-23, including a new Lethal Weapon movie. Following is a link to an extract from a biography I wrote about Mel quite early in his career: http://www.peterweircave.com/articles...
