Movie Discussion Club at the Hull Public Library from 5:30 - 6:30 p.m. to discuss “Picnic at Hanging Rock” directed by Peter Weir. This sensual and striking chronicle of a disappearance and its aftermath put director Peter Weir on the map and helped usher in a new era of Australian cinema. Based on an acclaimed 1967 novel by Joan Lindsay, “Picnic at Hanging Rock” is set at the turn of the twentieth century and concerns a small group of students from an all-female college who vanish, along with a chaperone, while on a St. Valentine’s Day outing. Less a mystery than a journey into the mystic, as well as an inquiry into issues of class and sexual repression in Australian society, Weir’s gorgeous, disquieting film is a work of poetic horror whose secrets haunt viewers to this day. This film is available through the Old Colony Library Network DVD collection. No registration is required, and for more information, email Vienna Steiner at vsteiner@hull.ocln.org.
