As an American cowboy, I had never seen an outback saddle before this film came out (and would never consider planting my butt in an English saddle). My first thought was it was an odd English saddle. As I sat through the movie I began to become more and more curious about it. About 3 years later I had an opportunity to ride one. As someone who almost exclusively rides a variety of 1860s thru 1890s style "A" fork saddles I felt right at home. After a few hours of riding I decided I had to have one. It took another couple years but I finally bought one. Still have it, still use it, especially for training young and rank horses. Great interview!!!

Best movie I have watched in my lifetime. I have watched it at least 30 times. I was 17 when it came out and it has had a wonderful impact on my life. Thank you Mr. Burlinson, for the amazing work you did and for the incredibly long lasting impact you have had on everyone who has watched it!

I’m 84 years old I’ve watched a lot of movies in my lifetime as far as I’m concerned that is the best movie I’ve ever watched. I have a DVD can’t begin to tell you how many times I’ve watched it and I’ll watch it again never get tired of that movie lol

Thank you from Texas.

My brother was studying film work when this came out, and he insisted that I come and see it with him. During the descent scene, I whispered to him, "Are they bending (tilting) the camera?" He absolutely hissed at me, "No, look at the trees." Great riding and cinematography. Great movie.

American here! Wish I could buy a DVD of Pharlap.

So glad that I had more than one opportunity to see The Man from Snowy River when I worked in Papua New Guinea. Not so sure I would have been able to catch it if I had been home in Canada.

I always got the chills when he the horse made that jump it was the best movies i have watched

I LOVE LOVE The Man From Snowy River! I saw it in the theatre in 1982 and have watched it 30x over the last 43 years. I listen to Jessica's Theme all the time.

What a gracious Man

Except we dug up trees and replanted them at an angle

Oh yeah he's cute❤❤❤❤😊😊😊

Okay so when the movie came out I was young but I was so enthralled with him like in love with him it's like a fairytale romantic and a superhero I was so in love with him😊😊😊😊

When Bango Patterson's poem descriptions of the ride they blend. In my head, his words are playing. He sent the flint-stones flying, but the pony kept his feet, He cleared the fallen timbers in his stride, And the man from Snowy River never shifted in his seat - It was grand to see that mountain horseman ride. Through the stringy barks and saplings, on the rough and broken ground, Down the hillside at a racing pace he went; And he never drew the bridle till he landed safe and sound, At the bottom of that terrible descent.

The question is: with the given talent of riding a horse like Tom Did back then, please tell me he still gets on a horse. He is a natural riding. I’ve ridden most of my life and know a natural Horsemen when I see one!

This is so good and the way that Tom nails Kirk's voice is brilliant

Beats every stunt Tom Cruise ever did

Mad Max George is not the George Miller who directed Man From Snowy ... George T Miller was often referred to as the 'other' George Miller - but he should be venerated in his own right, especially for great films like the tv mini series The Last Outlaw about Ned Kelly, All The Rivers Run, Against the Wind, ANZACS and Les Patterson Saves The World ...

I wish they hadn’t killed off Jim’s horse in the film. They should have just retired him at the end. That part sucked.

Mommy dearest was her

and ironicaly she and cher were inducted in the r&r in the same yr

My all-time favorite singer: Dionne Warwick. I've lost count how many times I've seen her live. The review of my first DW concert was a full page in The Atlanta Constitution. I had it laminated and hoped to give it to her. Thirty-eight years later I had the chance: I became friends with Mary Wilson who was friends with Dionne. Mary called Dionne and asked if she'd receive me after a show. She did and seemed grateful that I thought do do that. I have a great picture of us. 😀 G!

Needed to go deeper.

Nipped tucked, pulled pried sliced and diced

Betty David once said in a interview that she didn’t care for Fay at all and didn’t like working with her

It also makes you rude? “Get out of my eye line!”

I've always loved Faye Dunaway. A true artist, brilliant performances.

Faye should not have done this. It was very tedious. Dunaway was a Brilliant Actress in her day.

Love love love the movie Man from snowy river. Tom is just wonderful in it. I wanted to share with Tom that the Movie was one of my Dads favorites. Before my Dad died 4 years ago we would always get together and watch it. Tom will always be an inspiration to me. To bad i can't meet him one day. That would be an Honor

I've watched Faye's career since Bonnie and Clyde and in my opinion, she has a tendency to overact, she's always watchable but in every performance, there is a bit of Mommie Dearest in how she acts. I've never seen her in a play, but I have friends that have, and they agree she is much better on the stage; I wish I had seen her on the stage when I had the chance.

I've lost count of how many times I've watched the Snowy River movies. They are so good

Loved Tom and Sigrid in this movie and love the high country where it was filmed which is not far from where I live. Thanks for the interview.

It’s amazing that Tom Burlinson did not know how to ride horses before this movie. He was amazing.

There is no way that movie would have succeeded if Mr. Burlinson hadn't taken it upon himself to learn to ride. He's right up there with Ben Johnson or Slim Pickens as far as actors who could ride. And they both were cowboys who found themselves in Hollywood.

Gosh, Faye, you’re still harping on about that. Stop blaming others for your own f*ck ups. You admitted that you didn’t believe the book was true, and yet you still crapped all over Joan with that performance for the chance of winning an award. Well you got one. Joan herself delivered you the golden raspberry from beyond the grave.

I saw Star trek Into darkness with a live orchestra and it's AWESOME!!!! Hope they do this with Man from Snow river here in SE Virginia with a live orchestra! What a treat that would be.

A superb interview about a superb film.

Faye seems angry as mickey Rooney at his lost of power and status.very internalized anger frustration .she is mentioned in that book. "Tears in the eyes of and elephant'

My favorite actress.

Thanks for an insightful interview with Bill Bennett. I thoroughly enjoyed the film- alternately laughing , tearing-up or reflecting on myself as a 73 yr male. ( I purposely didn't write " old"- either because I don't like to think of myself as " old " or maybe because you're only as old as you feel). I have not walked the Way, and probably never will, but vicariously, I experienced an epiphany through the emotional impact of Bill's film. In many ways, Bill in the film was a mirror into which I looked- not just once, but several. times during the film and after the film. Films are an artifice, but every so often a genuinely powerful one comes along which is not only entertaining but impactful. Maybe Bill Bennett has helped me have my way ( version) of The Way. For that I am grateful to him. For all those that share this blog- I wish you " buen Camino" on and in your personal journey through life.. After all, it is the journey, not the destination which matters , as we all have the same destination in the end Thanks Bill.

Beautifully filmed and thoughtfully presented. It's one of the best films ever done on a person's life journey...

I couldn’t agree more! He did a spectacular job! Ian.

Laurent Bouzereau did a fantastic job. He deserves every award in the world for this documentary ❤

I saw the show in Melbourne yesterday and it was fantastic!! Loved the stories from Tom and Sigrid beforehand. This is one of my favourite movies, even with it being 2 years older than I am.

My favorite movie of all time. Introducing it to my teenagers now. Tom seems like such a cheerful, optimistic soul - truly a lovely man! After Peter Pan, my first childhood crush. ;)

A lovely man. The down the mountain ride is the scene I can watch over and over. The riding skill Tom acquired is amazing. I find myself leaning back in my chair as well when I watch it. ") Thank you for this interview, was a great joy. In Joy

Honey it wasn’t just a moment in Australia film it was a moment in film history period. Possibly the greatest ride ever in any movie. It was all you and your horse no cutting splicing of film to get the scene it was all one great scene unmatched before C or after. And it wows me that you weren’t an experienced horseman but you and the horse were one for that moment But yes it was and is one of the great scenes in film world wide and most likely the greatest horse ridding scene in film history ever. And thank you very much for giving it to us

Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional.....love the Swany cap. I think Bill, that we've moved on from "Infotainment". Today it's "Infogossip"

Tom I also remember you in Phar Lap such a great history of Australia number 1 race horse.
