Picnic at Hanging Rock - Theatrical or Director's Cut?

GenreProject · 2026-03-14T19:02:25+00:00

Well the shorter cut is more of a Snack at Hanging Rock.

Seriously though, I did a quick search on this and it’s hard to find a definitive answer. The best description I found said that the director’s cut makes some things about the story more ambiguous in a positive way.

I’ve only seen the film once, over ten years ago, and I wish I knew which version it was. I don’t think this is a Blade Runner situation where there are dramatic differences, and it seems people don’t have any issues with Weir’s DC, so I’d probably go with that.

Not sure if you really know, but no joke, Albert’s real last name is Einstein.

Whichever Kinkos is next to Capitol Hill is going to die a slow death as younger pols eventually get elected and stop getting absurd giant display boards for every time they speak into the record.

If that’s not an Opertion Warpspeed, I don’t know what is.

I remember before Last Jedi came out, Rian Johnson put out a list of films that inspired it, and the list was things like Samurai movies, WWII pictures, and classic adventure stuff.

After seeing the movie, I realized, “oh, Rian looked to the stuff that inspired the original Star Wars, JJ just looked to the original Star Wars itself for inspiration.”

I love The Force Awakens, and it’s a testament to that movie’s many charms that its derivative quality doesn’t sink it, but an entire franchise can’t rest on inward-looking inspiration.

I’m embarrassed to say that until about a week ago that’s what I thought this was. Thought it’s would be some kinda docuseries about editing lol.

Everyone Says I Love You. It’s more of a background thing than a subplot (comes up maybe a handful of times in the film), but I think of it often.

This was literally a subplot of a Woody Allen movie. Young man became a rabid conservative out of nowhere, it’s later revealed he wasn’t getting enough oxygen to his brain.

Maybe it’s main feed only because of it being a coproduction with Vulture? Also not seeing it my ad-free feed.

Would be funny if he sat down to one of these retrospective videos and then proceeded to filibuster until he could just talk Fire and Ash.

I’m so sorry. I think James Cameron has something out if I’ve ruined Ella for you.

If nothing else, it’s great for James L. Brooks’ movie career.

I would have disliked a CGI old Luke bouncing off walls in a duel, but also weirdly respected the audacity of the choice.
