Mad Max is more than just an influential film franchise; it's an indelible part of the Australian cultural identity.
From modest beginnings as an independent thriller by George Miller and Byron Kennedy in 1979, Mad Max expanded into two high-octane post-apocalyptic epics in the 1980s with Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior (1981) and Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome (1985). By 1995, ten years after the seeming end of the franchise, Australia named Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior as a quintessential piece of their 'National Cinematic Heritage' for UNESCO's Memory of the World preservation program.
The legacy of Mad Max was further cemented with the arguably unprecedented critical success of its long-delayed "legacy sequel" Mad Max: Fury Road, which recast the role of Max Rockatansky and rode shiny and chrome to 10 nominations at the 88th Academy Awards, including Best Picture, and ultimately taking home six statues (the most of any film that night).
Now, with the release of Fury Road's prequel, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, Tom Lorenzo revisits the franchise that went from Australian indie to Oscar juggernaut, to see what we can take away today from the film series that redefined our idea of life after the apocalypse.
