silvermedalist Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 Well I have now seen the movie as well as read the book "Picnic at Hanging Rock" and am more mystified by it more than ever. I have not a clue. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
spidersandsnakes Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 Well I have now seen the movie as well as read the book "Picnic at Hanging Rock" and am more mystified by it more than ever. I have not a clue. For the records, Hanging Rock actually exists (north-east of Melbourne, Victoria) and the story has been re-rated as not so unreal in time....those girls really disappeared (where to no-one knows!) and I have visited that rock many times...I assure you there iS something very magical and weird in that whole area....something that is common in many outback areas of my country......you have to go there to get what I mean. Our Aboriginals have thsi magic in their blood:) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Our Aboriginals have thsi magic in their blood:) The piano piece near the end of the movie is a classic concerto by either Mozart or Beethoven I believe? i know its a famous one and it is the one that was played in the movie "The Competition" with Richeard Dreyfuss. A fabulous piano classic work. As for the story am I correct to assume the mean old Ms Appleyard killed the poor girl Sara? Or is it too left a total myetery? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I am. And how long do you want to keep this going? Is this Mary Hartman? Or should I ask Ed King? If not, I dont know you and done talking to you. I asked Spidersandsnakes a question, and for some reason decided to start your shit again. Well, I am used to your kind. Plenty have come and gone. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I believe that is a mystery 2.....the only sure thing is that the survivor was left in a total state of amnesia:) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
silvermedalist Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 now now little man go have mum fix you a warm cup of cocoa then go chip some ice off the drive will all be better when you come back later Well the mum comment tells me you are a Brit. Little man huh? What is that supposed to mean. Stop with your ignorant posts. Have you nothing better to do? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
silvermedalist Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 I believe that is a mystery 2.....the only sure thing is that the survivor was left in a total state of amnesia:) It leaves you quite mystified. And with a very strong dislike for Ms Appleyard Quote Link to post Share on other sites
spidersandsnakes Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 It leaves you quite mystified. And with a very strong dislike for Ms Appleyard I do not like her either, but that sensation may only have been created by the author to enhance the suspense....who knows?!

She is like many a tough nun I had in grammar school as I attended Catholic schools. I do walk away believing she killed the young girl. But the rock mystery is a far different matter. I would like to get my hands on the final chapter that is out there somewhere. It is unavailble for purchase and though only around 16 pages from what I recall was selling for a large sum of money. I wish I could get it. Have you ever read it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

redrum Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Currently reading George Washington's illustrated biography. I absolutely love the Dodge Challenger commercial where Washington comes out of the woods driving a Challenger with a bunch of others to chase the redcoats back to England.
