If you loved The Last Wave, try Picnic at Hanging Rock

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Peter Weir, and they both carry the slow burn, surreal mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Mystery territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Last Wave, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Picnic at Hanging Rock is

Australian bush, Valentine's Day, a kookaburra's call. Schoolgirls in uniform wander off from a picnic, their laughter and rules fading into the rocks. Weir's enigmatic take on the Australian identity lingers.
