Australian director with the strangest filmography in the business: he made Mad Max, then Babe: Pig in the City, then Happy Feet, then Mad Max Fury Road at 70.
He trained and worked as an emergency doctor before any of it, which shows: the man knows exactly what a body does when a car hits it.
Mad Max Fury Road is the one everybody cites, a two hour chase filmed almost entirely practical. Three Thousand Years of Longing (2022) is the opposite film in every way, two people talking in a hotel room, and he made it right after.
