What is The Passenger / Walkabout about?

Double Feature: THE PASSENGER 126 min. Dir. Michelangelo Antonioni. Bringing together two of the screen’s most exciting personalities, Jack Nicholson and Maria Schneider, THE PASSENGER is, on the simplest level, a suspense story and a haunting portrait of a drained journalist trying to escape his own life, whose deliverance is an identity exchange with a dead man. WALKABOUT, 100 min. In Nicolas Roeg’s dreamy, hypnotically primal tone poem, an adolescent sister and brother flee into the Australian bush after their father has a deadly nervous breakdown. Once distant from civilization, the siblings meet an aboriginal youth (David Gulpilil) on his “walkabout,” the ritual separation from home and family as a test of survival and resourcefulness. {35mm}
