Three students and a school teacher disappear on an excursion to Hanging Rock, in Victoria, on Valentine's Day, 1900. The movie follows those that disappeared, and those that stayed behind, but it delights in the asking of questions, not the answering of them.

Leave your thoughts about Picnic at Hanging Rock.
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertA film of haunting mystery and buried sexual hysteria. |
| Austin ChronicleMarjorie BaumgartenPeter Weir made this unsettling, atmospheric film early in his career, and it is still one of his most successful projects to date. |
| San Francisco ChroniclePeter StackOne of the most hauntingly beautiful mysteries ever created on film. |
| Slant MagazineChris CabinIt’s the characters’ ceaseless need to fully understand, outsmart, and undermine nature’s sway that drives them into fervor and, often enough, leads them to shuffle off this mortal coil. |
| EmpireIan NathanA fascinating film that is by turns fascinating and mysterious. |
| The DissolveKeith PhippsWeir builds atmosphere one detail and lingering shot at a time. The cluttered, shadowy interiors of the school contrast with the open spaces and welcoming light of Hanging Rock, but the film makes neither feel like a safe place. Every moment feels designed to be unsettling, but the film also creates a sense of inevitability, that whatever is happening can’t be avoided, and should perhaps be embraced. |
| El Pais (Spain)Jesús Fernández Santos... in its apparent simplicity, the film is realized and complete. [Full review in Spanish] |
| Boston HeraldMark A. Perigard"Picnic at Hanging Rock" is lush, gorgeous, Gothic and at times plotted tighter than a corset. |
| Cinema em CenaPablo VillaçaSem conseguir criar muito clima de suspense ou mistério, Weir depende da recriação das buscas e de uma subtrama envolvendo uma aluna pobre. Ritmo lento, roteiro fraco. |
| Apollo GuideDan JardineEnigmatic and poetic, it retains much of its power today. |
