INTERVIEW | Award-winning Aussie filmmaker BILL BENNETT, who's directed SANDRA BULLOCK, KEANU REEVES, BURT REYNOLDS, JENNIFER COOLIDGE, and ERIC BANA, for starters, in his latest film, THE WAY, MY WAY, takes us on a very personal journey along the famed Camino in Spain. It's an overwhelmingly engaging drama based on the first of his own five Camino walks. It's warm-hearted, ironic, at times breathtaking, and it's a most rewarding experience, though, he admits, when he reached the Santiago de Compostela cathedral in Santiago, Spain, after a gruelling 800 km trek from Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port in Northern France — with a bung knee — he initially found it a bit of a "nothing-burger". He proved THAT wrong. Ultimately, he says, the Camino will answer your deep personal questions, even if at first you don't even know what they are. And even, as in his case, it takes 11 years. You'll want to go yourself once you've watched this revealing interview and seen this marvellous film. It's a long way from his early days as a cub reporter for MIKE WILLESEE, A CURRENT AFFAIR, and FOUR CORNERS.
