Director’s Statement : Charles Bean’s Great War

http://www.charlesbean.johnmooreproductions.com/the-story/directors-statement

Charles Bean’s Great War. The Charles Bean Collections. Art & War. DIRECTOR WAIN FIMERI ON CHARLES BEAN. I have always found Charles Bean interesting, but the more I found out about him, the more I found him oddly attractive. He was a nerdy man, a classical scholar, beaky, with wire rimmed spectacles. He was gangly and thin and obsessive. A pelican of a man, all elbows and knees. He had a ferocious work ethic. He was brave; physically where it was necessary, and mentally where it mattered.

http://www.charlesbean.johnmooreproductions.com/the-film

Charles Bean’s Great War. The Charles Bean Collections. Art & War. The life of Charles Bean encompassed many different parts of the world which were all important to tell his story and so, initially, the greatest challenge for the production was finding the locations to recreate France, Gallipoli, Egypt, outback NSW and the home and hospital of Charles’ later life all in some sort of proximity to each other. The later Bean footage was all filmed in and around Williamstown, Melbourne.
