My third Peter Weir film and his best so far. I've rated all three films, The Truman Show, Dead Poets Society and Picnic at Hanging Rock more than 9.0 stars and this one is the highest rated, so far.

There's cinema, then there's beautiful cinema and then there's Picnic at Hanging Rock, a movie so tantalizing, so ethereal, so sublime, that you may scream out IMPOSSIBLE because no-othe... read more

(OK) Podría ser la obra maestra australiana, el misterio que sublima sexo, religión, geografía y clivajes australianos, romanticismo, todo. Roberts está tan miserable como humana, los jóvenes 'intactos' conmueven en el fondo

Description: There are spots on the earth believed to have magical powers or mysterious properties.

"13.12. 2024 A group of schoolgirls vanish into thin air during a picnic at the foot of mysterious Hanging Rock. Uncertainty and fear fill the slowly thickening atmosphere as schoolgirls and teachers wonder about the fate of their friends. Peter Weir's mystery film may feel disappointing to those viewers who expect answers to questions because "Picnic at Hanging Rock" is all about the atmosphere. The plot is quite thin but the beauty of nature, suggestive symbolism, and lack of explanations make"

"7.11. Yle Areena Visuaalisesti mielettömän kaunis sekä tunnelmaltaan jännittävän mystinen ja kiehtova, kuten tarinaltaankin. Olen aika varma, että kalliolla on joitain symbolisia merkityksiä, joista ainakin osa on aika ilmeisiä."
