This week we're classing the place up a bit by taking a detour down under for a look at the movie that the Australian Film Board considers the greatest Austrlian movie ever made. We're watching Peter Weir's 1975 piece of magical realism, Picnic At Hanging Rock. When three girls and their teacher vanish without a trace under strange circumstances during a school picnic in 1900 the mystery becomes an obsession for those left behind. This dreamy, lyrical piece of cinema is as unconventional as a horror movie gets. It's vulvacious!

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 Written and directed by Peter Weir, The Plumber was originally made and broadcast as a television film in Australia in 1979 but was subsequently released to theatres in several countries beginning with the United States in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!

Sammenholdet bygger i høj grad på en uspecifik kærlighed til det brogede musikområde, der er langhåret musik. Såkaldt "hippie-musik".

Kan det evt. tages videre så vi også undersøger i hvilket omfang de 1% rigeste menneskers rigdom kommer til dem af retfærdig, etisk forsvarlig vej, forestillinger om meritokrati, hvem har fortjent hvad? Den socialistiske tøjvirksomhed “Comrade Workwear” har fået lukket sit online-betalingssystem og alle SoMe-konti lukket (af flere omgange), efter de forsøgte at publicere et sæt spillekort med verdens rigeste direktører.

Agradece a este podcast tantas horas de entretenimiento y disfruta de episodios exclusivos como éste. ¡Apóyale en iVoox! 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.

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.

Witness is a tense thriller as much as it is a sweet love story, but Peter Weir's typically sensitive direction balances those elements very well. He also led Harrison Ford to his only Oscar nomination, which seems hard to believe for a guy who's been such a big movie star for such a long time. Lukas Haas plays a young Amish Pennsylvanian who witnesses a vicious murder in the washroom of a train station, then Philly detective Ford has to protect him and his mother (Kelly McGillis) from retribution by the dirty cops who did the deed.

Following up starring in a string of big budget genre epics (Raiders of the Lost Ark, Blade Runner, Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi) in the early part of the '80's, Harrison Ford decided to detour just a bit with this smaller-scale suspense thriller directed by the legendary Peter Weir (Dead Poet's Society, The Truman Show).  Here he plays John Book, a Philadelphia police detective investigating a local murder where the ONLY witness is a young Amish boy (Lucas Haas) who happened to be travelling through the area with his mother at the time.  As it turns out, this murder investigation goes up the chain of the local police department and after an attempt is made on Book's life, he flees to the nearby Amish Country where the young boy lives with his mother Rachel (Kelly McGillis).  There as they help nurse John back to health, he not only becomes involved with the local Amish community but develops a forbidden romance with Rachel.  And what results is one of the best thrillers of the decade as it also was eventually nominated for eight Oscars including Best Picture, Best Director, and what has remained the ONLY Oscar nomination for Ford, Best Actor.   Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

This week on the pod, after the boys catch up, honor David Lynch, and give three mini-reviews, the boys discuss 1993's “True Romance”, the film that makes you ask, is Quentin Tarantino a better writer or director?

Every movie in our current moment, regardless of quality, seems to have spawned sequels, prequels, and reboots; in this episode, we lament that the one film that we wish had been the beginning of a series didn't make enough money to do so. Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World, Peter Weir's 2003 adaptation of Patrick O'Brien's novels, is rich, unironic, and inspiring; it's a study of leadership, the tension between technology and human skill, and the ways in which discipline and restraint yield more genuine emotion that what we see now, when people post about their “struggles” every thirty seconds. Join us for a conversation about a film that makes its viewers wonder how they would fare as sailors and that makes them think about the shortcomings of their bosses. The film is based on Patrick O'Brien's Aubrey / Maturin series; Master and Commander is the novel in which the captain and doctor meet.

There was not a faster rising star in the mid 90s than Jim Carrey. After an 18 month window that gave us Ave Ventura: Pet Detective, Dumb and Dumber, The Mask and Batman Forever, it was a little surprising to see him take a more dramatic role in Peter Weir's The Truman Show. The story of Truman Burbank slowly discovering that he's the unwitting star of a lifelong reality TV show marked a real turning point in his career. Clint, Cal and Alex talk about the overlooked greatness of key grips, how the film was both ahead of its time AND very of its time and how staggeringly good Laura Linney is.

Herb's picked a few Aussie classics and this week's pick is no exception with the war drama Gallipoli! Gallipoli, directed by Peter Weir, was a large-scale and highly ambitious undertaking that sought to depict the experiences of young Australian soldiers during the ill-fated Gallipoli campaign of World War I. Weir, who co-wrote the film with David Williamson, worked closely with producer Patricia Lovell and cinematographer Russell Boyd to bring the story to life with authenticity and emotional depth. Filming primarily took place in South Australia and Egypt, using real locations to evoke the desolate battlefields of the Gallipoli Peninsula. The filmmakers worked hard to realistically depict the soldiers' journey from rural Australia to the trenches, emphasizing the historical details of the era and the grim realities of war. Casting Mel Gibson and Mark Lee as the young soldiers Archy and Frank, Gallipoli highlighted the friendships, idealism, and patriotism that drove many Australians to enlist. Gibson, who was then relatively unknown, delivered a powerful performance alongside Lee, capturing the emotional toll of the war on young men. To create the movie's climactic scenes, the production team used hundreds of extras and recreated significant portions of the battlefield, ensuring the film's epic yet tragic feel. Though budget constraints were a challenge, the film achieved a lasting impact, celebrated for its historical significance, poignant storytelling, and for portraying a pivotal moment in Australian and World War I history.

Mes chers camarades, bien le bonjour !Qui dirige le monde ? Beyoncé répond : les filles ! Eh bien elle ne serait pas d'accord avec l'explorateur anglais du 17e siècle, Sir Walter Raleigh.

This week, after John briefly discusses "Goodrich", the new Michael Keaton picture written and directed by Hallie Meyers-Shyer, the boys take on another Hitchcock classic to highlight the film year 1959. Chosen by our random year generator, 1959 was a doozy for world and civil news, making a mistaken identity spy thriller the perfect film to highlight. You'll have to listen to see if the boys think this film sits on the Mount Rushmore (get it?) of Hitchcock's classics. Our phone number is 646-484-9298.

The random year generator spun 1974, so the boys head to 1937 L.A. to discuss the Roman Polanski, Robert Towne, Bob Evans, Jack Nicholson, and Faye Dunaway classic “Chinatown”. Often cited as one of the best movies with one of the best scripts in Hollywood history, plenty has been said about this film. Still, cinematographer Dave had never seen it, John went to fancy film school, and Jeff goes deep into the context of the film year, highlighting top-grossing films, awards, and what the heck was going on in the world. Is it coincidental that Nixon's public demise and unequivocal exoneration came the year Chinatown cites bureaucratic corruption??? Our phone number is 646-484-9298.

Jurandir Filho, Thiago Siqueira, Rogério Montanare e Fernanda Schmölz batem um papo sobre "O Show de Truman" (1998), dirigido por Peter Weir e estrelado por Jim Carrey. O filme, que segue a vida de Truman Burbank sem saber que está sendo monitorado 24 horas por dia em um reality show, levanta questões sobre a influência da mídia, a invasão de privacidade e o conformismo social. A crítica à manipulação midiática e à perda da autonomia individual faz do longa uma reflexão atemporal sobre a busca por autenticidade em um mundo de aparências. Sem falar que pela primeira vez vemos uma nova faceta de Carrey: interpretar um personagem em um filme de drama, que foge bastante de seus papéis cômicos tradicionais.
