In Australia, in Australia, three female students and their teachers disappear in the daytime around the scenery of the past. Peter Weir's 1975 movie “Picnic in Hanging Rock” symbolizes the idea of ββthe “creepy outback” of semi -natural.
Based on John Lindsay's 1967 novel inspired by his dream, the “Hanging Rock Picnic” is like a national treasure, and is oiled into the largest movie of the Australian Film Institute. I am. A new 4K restoration of the 1998 director cut begins on Friday at the IFC Center in Manhattan.
In 1900 Valentine's Day, a young woman of Appleyard College, a dedicated finish school with Victorian accessories, is a one -day excursion to a hung rock, a disturbed Central Victoria, appointed by the Nakashinyo epoch. I fluttered in the hope of the prospect of the volcanic formation. γ Swans decorate the pond, the Billetto circulates, and the Romanian folk musician GHEORGHE ZAMFIR bread flute fills the air.
“What we are seeing and what we have seen is a dream -a dream in a dream”, Miranda (Anne Louise Lambert) is beautifully loved by Edgar Alan Poe. I quote it and muse. When the party reaches the rock, the time becomes quiet … literally. The young French teacher, Mademoisel Diane Poatier (Helen Morse), ignores the order of the school dragon -like principal (Rachel Roberts), is Miranda compared to the Bottie Angel Angel. It allows some girls to explore the forbidden geological layer. γ Even if the afternoon has passed and the remaining classmates fall into an erotic transformer, the girl will not return. Subsequent procedures are hardly distinguished from absence.

It is charged more erotic than “eerie and sexy”, but is written in the 1979 New York Times review. Actress Chloe Seveny named “Hanging Rock” as a favorite movie. Sofia Coppola seems to have been particularly impressed because a movie is often set in the world of HER, where young women with privileged young women live.

Not very clear, Wear's movie ends with a dream melodramic, blurred photos, secret shrines, public illusions, vision, and suicide. A new mysterious convergence has been proposed and hangs.
Wear's movie has no symbols or precursors. However, no one implies the rocks of the indigenous people who have been regarded as sacred and have lived in this area for thousands of years. Their spirit is not wasted because Hamelin's pided pipeper was unpaid. Wear is an occult thriller released in the United States before the “Hanging Rock” in “The Last Wave” (1977). Nevertheless, although it is invisible in the movie, the indigenous residents of Australia dropped the shadow.
Their noticeable absence may be the real lost ance at the center of the story.
