April 19: "The Wicker Man" (UK, 1973, 88 minutes, directed by Robin Hardy). A young girl is missing, or maybe not, on the Scottish island of Summerisle. Police Detective Sgt. Howie arrives from the mainland to investigate and finds a community not to his liking. The natives have gone native, returning to old pagan Celtic religious rituals. Howie’s attempts to unravel the mysteries of the island lead to more and more convolutions. Rated R for sexual situations, nudity and violence. Post-film discussion led by Dr. Rachel Krantz, Associate Professor of French at Shepherd University.
