Jeff Bridges in Fearless
Summary VFX supervisor William Mesa details how Fearless created its plane crash scene. Directed by Peter Weir, with a script written by Rafael Yglesias adapted from his novel of the same name, the 1993 film follows a man who survives a devastating plane crash, and the harrowing experience dramatically changes his personality. Jeff Bridges stars in the lead role alongside Isabella Rossellini, Rosie Perez, Tom Hulce, John Turturro, and Benicio del Toro.
The film's VFX supervisor detailed how its plane crash scene was created, which required a specially grown cornfield, a high-speed camera truck, and additional miniature shots for the final effect. Read his full comments below: We had to take a camera truck and go as fast as we could get the camera truck and then hit the corn field and go as far as we could go before the corn would stop the truck and then we did all of these miniature pieces that we broke up.
As the host Wren Weichman mentions, Fearless grew an entire cornfield to shoot the movie and sold the corn afterward, over 20 years before Christopher Nolan did the same on Interstellar. For the 2014 film, 500 acres of corn were planted for the famous cornfield chase, which also involved driving a truck through the stalks, and the later scenes of the corn being destroyed in an apocalyptic dust storm.
