Part 2 of our surrealist mini-season, Nicolas Roeg’s weird and wonderful Walkabout, pulled in a great crowd and moved Norris up to 3rd place in the Successful Suggesters list (getting to 2nd place will take some doing, however!). Walkabout is a movie that lingers in the memory, in no small part because of the crazy camerawork with sudden cutaways to close-ups of animal inhabitants of the outback.

I’ve seen Walkabout a few times, but this was the first time on Blu-ray. Maddeningly, the “brand new” Blu-ray disc started acting up just past the half-way mark, so we had to eject, wash, dry, put back, etc. This is so unfair. Anyway, people assured me that it didn’t detract from their MovieNight experience… were they just being nice?
