Today Drusilla and Josh discuss Peter Weir's under loved The Plumber (1979). From wiki: “The Plumber is a 1979 Australian psychological thriller film about a psychotic plumber who terrorizes a grad student. Written and directed by Peter Weir, The Plumber was originally made and broadcast as a television film in Australia in 1979 but was subsequently released to theatres in several countries beginning with the United States in 1981.[1] The film was made shortly after Weir's critically acclaimed Picnic at Hanging Rock became one of the first Australian films to appeal to an international audience.[2] The film stars Judy Morris, Ivar Kants, and Robert Coleby, all of them being most notable at the time as actors in Australian soap operas.[3]Also discussed: television, Nights of Cabiria, Medea, Heart Eyes (2025), Companion (2025), Despiser (2003), Presence (2025), Rules of the Game, Carlos Hugo Christansen films, Cornell Woolrich, and more!We do commentary!

VIII "Picnic at Hanging Rock", de Joan Lindsay, es una novela de misterio publicada en 1967 que ha desconcertado a los lectores por generaciones. La historia está ambientada en Australia en el año 1900 y sigue a un grupo de estudiantes del Appleyard College, un internado victoriano para señoritas de clase alta. Durante una excursión a Hanging Rock el 14 de febrero, día de San Valentín, tres alumnas, Miranda, Marion e Irma, junto con una profesora, la señorita McCraw, desaparecen sin dejar rastro. Solo Edith, una de las jóvenes, regresa al campamento en estado de shock, incapaz de recordar lo sucedido. Las investigaciones comienzan, pero no logran esclarecer el enigma. La única pista concreta es el posterior hallazgo de Irma Leopold, una de las desaparecidas, aunque sin recuerdos de lo ocurrido. El misterio queda sin resolver, lo que lleva a múltiples teorías, desde lo racional hasta lo sobrenatural. Un misterio más allá de la ficción "Picnic en Hanging Rock" no es solo una novela, es una experiencia literaria que se adentra en lo inquietante, en lo inexplicable. La propia Joan Lindsay contribuyó a la sensación de ambigüedad al insinuar en entrevistas que la historia podría estar basada en hechos reales. Su aire enigmático, su mirada siempre evasiva al responder sobre la inspiración del libro, y el hecho de que escribiera la historia en apenas cuatro semanas, tras una serie de sueños lúcidos, han alimentado aún más el mito. El famoso “Capítulo 18”, eliminado de la publicación original y publicado póstumamente en The Secret of Hanging Rock(1987), plantea una hipótesis aún más extraña. En él, se sugiere que las chicas fueron absorbidas por una grieta en la roca, desapareciendo en lo que podría ser un portal dimensional o un fenómeno sobrenatural. Este final, lejos de cerrar la historia, la vuelve aún más misteriosa. ¿Era Lindsay simplemente una narradora excepcional? ¿O sabía algo que no quiso revelar del todo? Algunos investigadores han explorado registros históricos de la época y han encontrado informes de desapariciones en la región de Hanging Rock. Se ha hablado de niñas que desaparecieron sin dejar rastro, de rituales indígenas que consideraban el lugar sagrado, e incluso de posibles crímenes ocultos por el tiempo. Uno de los casos más perturbadores en relación con la historia de Lindsay es el de una exalumna de una escuela que podría haber inspirado el Appleyard College. A sus cien años, declaró: “Todos sabíamos sobre las chicas que desaparecieron, pero ninguno conocía los detalles”. Palabras inquietantes que dejan entrever que el misterio podría haber tenido una base real. También hay otro hecho extraño: Anne-Louise Lambert, la actriz que interpretó a Miranda en la adaptación cinematográfica de Peter Weir (1975), relató un momento escalofriante con Joan Lindsay. Durante el rodaje, la escritora la abrazó con lágrimas en los ojos y le dijo: "Miranda... ha pasado tanto tiempo". Anne intentó recordarle que ella solo era una actriz, pero Joan Lindsay parecía estar en otro tiempo, en otro lugar, como si realmente estuviera viendo a la verdadera Miranda. ¿Era un simple desliz de una anciana nostálgica, o realmente había visto algo en su niñez que nunca pudo explicar? Las dudas permanecen. ¿Es Picnic en Hanging Rock solo una obra de ficción? ¿O Lindsay fue, de algún modo, una vidente que captó los ecos de un suceso olvidado? La propia autora dejó esta frase en el prólogo original, antes de que fuera eliminada por los editores: "Para el autor, que conocía muy bien el Monte Macedon y la Roca Colgante, cuando era niño, la historia es completamente cierta.” HAZTE MECENAS, no dejes que La Biblioteca, cierre Nunca sus Puertas… Sigamos sumando en LLDLL, SUSCRIBETE en IVOOX y comparte.

"...The Eerieness Remains": Joan Lindsey. We talk about Mark Fisher's final chapter about Picnic at Hanging Rock (1967) by Joan Lindsey and the synthesis of the weird and the eerie of the unpublished chapter in the book.

50 years ago, a 20-something Peter Weir decided to hypnotise us away from the possibility of solutions when he adapted Joan Lindsay's novel into the Australian gothic horror classic, Picnic at Hanging Rock. On Valentine's day in 1900, the students from Miss Appleyard's depart their fortress-like school in rural Victoria for a lazy afternoon at the base of Hanging Rock. The hot wind blows in, the clocks stop, the girls peel off their stockings and, as the ants descend on the remains of the picnic, four girls ascend the rock, along with one of their teachers. Only one of them returns. As people hear of the mysterious disappearances, search parties break out, but only one girl is recovered, missing her corset and her memory of what happened at Hanging Rock. As are we all. Because if you need an ending you're a bit weak in the head.See AlsoThe Secret of Hanging Rock available on eBay or via this PDFJoan Linsday's memoir 'Time Without Clocks' published in 1962Mulberry Hill, Joan's house which is now owned by the National TrustInterview with producer Pat Lovell in Cinema Papers from 1976Scan of the scriptDeleted scene of Mrs Appleyard at the rock NFSA page that includes info about the costumes and deleted scenes and stills, interviews with cast and crewJudith Dorsman's dollsMartin Sharp's Tiny Tim concert film is on Plex and his unfinished doc Street of Dreams is on YouTubeThe BeguiledThe FitsUmbrella's Making of Picnic at Hanging Rock – part 1 and part 2Magic Dirt's She-Riff videoThe Fast Forward sketch Anne Lambert on ABC's just Between UsNew adaptation from Sydney Theatre Company playing 17 February – 5 April 2025 Hosted on Acast.

Det fantes en tid – nærmere bestemt det 20. århundret – hvor man så konstant eksperimentering innenfor kunstfeltet. Hvert tiår hadde sitt eget definerte og lett gjenkjennelige uttrykk. Men så, i 2003, tok det slutt, og siden den gang har kulturen stått stille. Dette er det i hvert fall det flere kritikere hevder, og inntrykket kan spores til et par tekster av den britiske kritikeren og filosofen Mark Fisher.Ukens episode ser nærmere på den stadig mer utbredte teorien om at vi i de siste 25 årene har vært mer opptatt av å resirkulere populærkulturen av i går enn å jakte på det nye og det uhørte.Anbefalinger:Elise: Picnic at Hanging Rock (1975) Regi: Peter WeirTilgjengelig på Vega hjemmekino.Aksel: Tegneserien Sunday av Oliver SchrauwenVerk og tekster nevnt i episoden:Ghosts of my life av Mark FisherRetromania av Simon ReynoldsThe future isn't cancelled: Grandpa you just need to get laid av Lauren J.

When director and actor Ian Michael first saw the stage play of Picnic at Hanging Rock, adapted by playwright Tom Wright, it was as a theatre attendant. Now, he is directing it at the Opera House for the Sydney Theatre Company. The Noongar theatre-maker has forged an exciting career performing deeply personal stories alongside innovative productions. His production of the gothic story of the Victorian school girls who go missing on St Valentine's Day, interrogates a colonial nightmare and its fixture in the Australian imagination.In 1954, model Shirley Beiger shot and killed her boyfriend outside the ritzy Chequers nightclub in Sydney. The case was a media sensation, especially when Beiger got off without any charges. It has inspired the cabaret A Model Murder staged inside the Darlinghurst Court House, where the original trial took place. Performers Amber McMahon and Maverick Newman give us a taste of the court action, along with writer Sheridan Harbridge.In the hit Edinburgh Fringe show, Feeling Afraid As If Something Terrible Is Going To Happen, Samuel Barnett is a stand-up comedian regaling us at breakneck speed about his unfulfilling love life and very hectic brain. When a new and dazzling man comes into his life, everything could change, except for his new partner's extremely inconvenient medical condition... but is everything as it seems? Sam and director Matthew Xia join Michael to unpack this charismatic character, written by Marcello Dos Santos.

Zero and The Wiz RECOMMEND Picnic at Hanging Rock Picnic at Hanging Rock, Peter Weir's film based on the novel by Joan Lindsay, is definitely a movie that is for a specific type of person in a specific type of mood. It's a quite, beautiful but at times discomforting film about tragedy and how the people in a protected bubble react when tragedy strikes. It has exceptional cinematography and the direction by Weir sets up the ethereal vibe of the film that leads to it's eerie and discomforting tone. It's a film that both Wiz and Zero can see it's quality in. But Zero is perfectly fine with his singular viewing, while Wiz is not sure exactly how much he likes the film which will require multiple viewings to really grasp. Still, Picnic at Hanging Rock is a good film that, if you are a fan of someone like Sofia Coppola, should actually give this film a strong shot.

Dennoch gibt es einen Roman zu dieser Geschichte und einen noch viel besseren Film von Peter Weir. Doch was uns Weir wirklich mit Picnic at Hanging Rock sagen will und warum eine teufliche Panflöte dabei eine Rolle spielen könnte, erfahrt ihr in unserer Filmanalyse.

Welcome to the daily304 – your window into Wonderful, Almost Heaven, West Virginia.   Today is Tuesday, Nov. 28  Residents theorize about the mysterious “Peters Mountain Roar.” Savor the flavors of the WV Culinary Trail. And CAMC opens a new, state-of-the-art training facility for healthcare professionals…on today's daily304. #1 – From WV EXPLORER – Those who have heard the haunting "Peters Mountain Roar" say it will forever stay with them. "The roar of a thousand lions," some have called it. A meteorological phenomenon, the sound is most often experienced in the windward valleys west of Peters Mountain. Many theories have been proposed about its origin, though none have answered all questions about its magical influence. "Old timers called in the roar of a thousand lions," added Amy Cole South, who grew up near the mountain and operates Mountain Shadow Cabin, which lodges at least one scholar who has studied the sound. In the 1960s, Shirley Donnelly published a theory proposed by W.O. Raines of Gap Mills. Raines said the sound was created by high-level winds racing across the top of the mountain.  As to where on the mountain the sound emanates remains a mystery. Some believe it's created where the winds blow over rocky areas along the summit, as at Hanging Rock, the site of the Hanging Rock Raptor Observatory.  Read more: https://wvexplorer.com/2023/11/20/peters-mountain-roar-monroe-county-west-virginia/    #2 – From WV TOURISM –  Appalachian flavors meet global influences on the West Virginia Culinary Trail.

Content warning: This episode includes references to sexual violence as discussed in PICNIC AT HANGING ROCK. Public reaction to three missing schoolgirls and their teacher during a field trip to Hanging Rock – a prehistoric monolith – ranges from shock to guilt to pocket-watching. But how the citizens of Victoria react sometimes belies their true feelings: The girls who were spared their classmates' fate are giddy with drama; the police fear what their inability to solve the incident means for their authority; and headmistress Ms. Appleyard may harbor more jealousy than guilt over the girls' freak disappearance. This episode delves into the colonial, historical, sexual, and gender-centric throughlines of Peter Weir's PICNIC AT HANGING ROCK, focusing on Ms. Appleyard as a vector for the girls' frivolous nature, their austere environment, and the imposition of British rule over the First Nations of Australia.

A Humanistic Pairing: Harrison Ford & Peter Weir (Witness and The Mosquito Coast)  Join me as we close out our Harrison Ford Tribute (tribute?) with a look at two exceptional Ford performances (one of which is his only Oscar nomination), 1985s Witness and 1986s The Mosquito Coast.  In the first film a seemingly typical Ford character, Philadelphia Detective John Book finds himself protecting a young Amish boy (Lukas Haas) and his mother (Kelly McGillis) in an Amish community completely unfamiliar to him. What could easily be a routine and obvious storyline is allowed to find itself and evolve into more than your standard police procedural. Director Peter Weir (in his first American production after great success in Australia - Picnic at Hanging Rock and Gallipoli) delivers a gripping and emotionally powerful narrative. The following year would find Weir and Ford continuing their collaboration with The Mosquito Coast (from the novel by Paul Theroux with a screenplay from Paul Schrader). In a performance unlike anything else in his filmography, Ford portrays Allie Fox an inventor, father of four, and deeply dissapointed member of American society. Disgusted with the hypocrisy, laziness, and greed of America, Fox moves his family to the jungles of Panama in an egotistical effort to control his (and his family's) present and future.
