Forgotten Silver (1995). Written and Directed by Costa Botes & Peter Jackson. Featuring Jeffrey Thomas, Peter Jackson, Costa Botes, Leonard Maltin, Sam Neill, Johnny Morris, John O’Shea.

Time for our annual April Fool celebration, a trip across the Tasman for a New Zealand film. This documentary begins with a simple call to Peter Jackson from his mum. What Sir Peter found in his neighbour’s shed would raise questions about what we thought we knew about history.
