I couldn't believe I finished watching that 6 episodes of miniseries PICNIC AT THE HANGING ROCK. I was actually browsing on what to rent for Tuesday afternoon not falling asleep to boredom because boring afternoon makes me feel so lazy and dull.lol. So told myself better watch something like this without knowing who are the cast of characters and what the story is all about other than it is a "picnic" and don't even know what hanging rock is. Sorry, not that stupid. I just want to surprise myself about this miniseries by not looking for its wikipedia info. Why? Because sometimes, when you read the whole story from an information highway the element of surprise is gone.
First episode was kind of dark and mysterious and the woman who was covered with a dark lacey veil or headdress was inside this old castle-like dwelling doing inspection and she bought the whole building with almost perfect yard only to be used as her business venture for "all girl college boarding house or dormitory for college students" but young girls also are included in the schooling of such group of innocent women. Then as time progressed, I noticed one familiar face and I was surprised that it was Samara Weaving who was in portrayal of Irma Leopold (the heiress, from a wealthy family) , the actress in the movie READY OR NOT. The movie, rather miniseries is a succession of six episodes without commercials. Every episode is a mystery and tells of the dark side and secrets being unfold one by one. Every character has something to offer as in each one has a mystery of its own and you wont believe who are the suspect in this murder, mystery thriller. The only survivor was Irma who doesn't even know what happened to her nor can remember the event of how and why her friends disappeared and she was spared from such vanishing act.
You should watch it and find out for yourself who can bring justice to the missing 3 women who happened to just adore the enchanting hanging rock, once a scene of volcanic eruption in Australia. Yup, people there are ancient volcanoes in Australia. Why the strange formation of rock? How about Stonehenge in UK is that very strange too?
That fascinating hanging rock is similar to the devil's tower, sublime and mysterious. The Devil's Tower was known as the "Bear Lodge." The very first American monument. ? What's inside the Devil's Tower? What's inside the Hanging Rock? Uhm, I had a story written long time ago similar to this kind of "tower." Anyway, I was delighted that the story of the Picnic At the Hanging Rock remains a mystery until now. One of those unsolved murder mysteries and that requires a sequel. Seek well...
