It turns out that while Mike knows EXACTLY what happed to the girls who disappeared on a school trip in Victoria on Valentine’s Day 1900, Charlie really doesn’t.  Director Peter Weir’s period-set mystery explores the unknowable horror of gloves and corsets within the restrictive confines of the Australian landscape.  Or maybe its the other way around? 

If you’d like to watch ahead for next week’s film, we will be discussing and reviewing Michael Haneke’s Funny Games (1997).
