Facing Fear

Did the person who wrote the "fear this doco" see the same film as me, and the audiences that have given the film resounding applause at countless screenings across the country?

This is a powerful film that will change lives and save lives.

The photography is stunning, and the interviewees include such luminaries as Dr Joe Dispenza, Dr Bruce Lipton, Caroline Myss, Dr Lissa Rankin, Professor Matt McKay and the celebrated creator of the Internal Family Systems modality of psychological therapy, Harvard Professor Richard Schwartz.

The person who wrote the "fear this doco" review rates these esteemed and highly respected medical professionals as "third rate new age gurus" who make assertions they have no clue on. Clearly this person doesn't have a clue, and is threatened by the life-changing keys that this film holds.

Facing Fear is a film that will make you view fear from new perspectives. I recommend it highly.

I found this film to be pertinent and timely with all that has happened and is happening in our world today. For myself, I learned about how I had stuffed fears in my life and how that was affecting me even now. I appreciated hearing from such a variety of people who have themselves touched so many people and made a difference in their lives. The film caused me to think and to understand what drives me and how my life could change for the better. I also appreciated Bill Bennett's film "PGS - Your Personal Guidance System" and am looking forward to his upcoming films on Hope, Love, and Beyond the Veil. And I look forward to the film based on his book "The Way, My Way: A Camino Memoir." I have become a huge fan of this filmmaker and his team!

Anyone who gives this film anything less than 10 stars is being very harsh and negative. I'm a hardcore critic of all entertainment, and this was a stellar film! This is a subject that more people need to be talking about. I was happy to see so many wonderful spiritual authors and public figures, whom I love, featured in this movie. Also, the cinematography is amazing! I left feeling more hopeful and I have a new, healthier way of looking at fear. This is a must-see! Bill is great. Very gracious and quite funny.

I'm very much looking forward to seeing any future films like the next one on HOPE.

Everyone needs to watch this film - several times, and take notes.

On each viewing, more richness is taken away by the viewer. Thus film made me think. Made me dive deeply into an examination of my own fears and the impact they are having on my life - and how to deal with them. Are they real fears? Or are they false fears - a story I'm making up?

A film for 10 year olds to 100 year olds.

A film that causes conversations, causes deep reflection.

A visually stunning film. I now need to revisit Tasmania, Australia.

The drone footage was so apt, so powerful.

Well Done, Bill Bennett and Jennifer Cluff!

And - Thank You.

You'd imagine that if you gathered a panel of leading experts from across the spectrum of biological science, psychology, spirituality, metaphysics, and mystics that you'd find a fair bit of disagreement. Well, not here. Even though each of filmmaker Bill Bennet's interviewees stated what they were saying in a slight different way, there was an obvious sense of agreement on the subject of fear. What it is, how it affects us, how to respond to it.

Yep, there were some real crackpots featured in it (and depending who you are who they are will probably differ), but honestly, even the people whose worldview was not mine made sense and said helpful things. I genuinely found the theme of this film and the information shared helpful.

I was also delighted to discover that for the most part, my life is no longer marked by fear. It had been previously, but thanks to TRTP - the trauma therapy featured in the film - fear, phobias, anxiety, depression, and stress no longer rule me like they did in the past. It was such a delight to watch a film on fear, find incredible agreement with so many of what it is, but also know that I've found an effective way to face it.
