The cache is not at the listed coordinates, but instead, you will find the Macclesfield Institute. The Macclesfield Institute was the epicentre for a South Australian movie production, Weekend of Shadows, back in 1977. The Weekend of Shadows was a powerful film released by the S.A. Film Corporation and Samson Productions, and holds special interest for the people of the Hills. Much of the filming was carried out in and around the township of Macclesfield and many local people were “extras.” The Macclesfield Institute was the scene for registration for part-time roles, and screening homes and buildings to be included in the scenes. Macclesfield does not have its own cinema, so the Macclesfield Institute was the next closest building.
The movies are one of those things that we do when it is too rainy to be outside and geocaching, but yet gets one out of the house. Back in the day, Tuesdays use to be half price movie days, and even on the other days, they would be $8-10. These days, they feel three times the price. I’m sure those production corporations are raking in the dosh.
There were some memorable movies that were released in 2017. Of course, there were several of the sequels Star Wars and hero universes, and I think we will continue to see more of the remakes of the Disney films real-life remakes from animation like Beauty and the Beast.
My favourite 2017 movies can be found in the images below.
Cache: The cache does not deserve a hint, but please hide well with camouflage. You will see that the cache is exposed on one side if no camouflage is replaced, so please make this cache last.
FTF: Congratulations to Brad&Janet, gridge98, and Ruff_Ruff for the joint FTF! They enjoyed two free movie tickets in luxury recliners (expiring March 2019), as well as an optional TB waiting to move on.
