PICNIC AT HANGING ROCK (1975) Blu-Ray UK - Director: Peter Weir

¿Qué Sucedió En Hanging Rock?

"El día de San Valentín de 1900 amaneció soleado y hermoso en el pueblo de Woodend, cerca de Melbourne (Australia). Era el día de la excursión anual en el colegio para señoritas Appleyard, sitio en las afueras del pueblo, y a primera hora de la mañana un grupo de alumnas y profesoras de dicha escuela salieron con la intención de efectuar un almuerzo campestre en un hermoso paraje local. Al final del día cuatro personas habían desaparecido; tres de ellas no volverían a ser vistas nunca más."

Esta extraña historia se ha convertido en un episodio célebre, tan misterioso como el caso del buque abandonado, el Mary Celeste. Se ha convertido en tema de incontables teorías, numerosos artículos de revistas, al menos dos libros y una película, Picnic at Hanging Rock (1975). Pero como en tantos otros misterios históricos, lo acontecido en Hanging Rock no es todo lo que aparenta ser.[/quote]

Second Sight have announced the UK Blu-ray Disc release of Picnic at Hanging Rock (The Director’s Cut) on 26th July 2010 priced at £19.99 RRP. On Valentine’s Day, 1900 a party of schoolgirls from Appleyard College took a trip to Hanging Rock near Mt. Macedon in the state of Victoria. Some of the party left the rest of the group and having climbed higher stopped to rest and fell asleep. They awoke as though still in a dream and silently ventured further through a passage in the imposing rock face. Some of the girls were never seen again. Peter Weir’s haunting and evocative film arrives on Blu-ray with a new HD transfer supervised by the director.
