Picnic at Hanging Rock

Dir. Peter Weir 1975

This is my dad’s second favorite movie (the first being Conan the Barbarian) and it’s also one of my favorites. Most of the people I have forced to watch it find it massively tedious.

Here is a brief plot synopsis courtesy of Wikipedia: “Picnic at Hanging Rock is about a trip by a party of girls from Appleyard College, an upper class private boarding school, who travel to Hanging Rock in Victoria’s Mount Macedon area for a picnic on Valentine’s Day, 1900. The excursion ends in tragedy when three girls and a teacher mysteriously vanish after climbing the rock. No reason for their disappearance is ever given, and the one girl who returns weeks later has no memory of what had happened to the others.”

    This is one of my all time favorite movies; just like Conan the Barbarian 🙂

    Kudos to your dad for his great taste, and to you for posting these gorgeous images.
