Amazon Revisits Classic Tale of Picnic at Hanging Rock

The original article can be found here.

The main points of the article are:

Mrs. Appleyard has a dark past with violent men.
The female characters are explored their sexuality in a way they couldn't at that time in history.
The original version of the movie 'often feels too literal.'
The actress playing the 'new' Mrs. Appleyard is 'a little too modern for that time period.'
Picnic at Hanging Rock worlds better as a feature film length production than a mini-series spread over six hours.
