Summertime is a nice time to pack a basket and go for a picnic. I thought today's post would be about movies where a picnic scene is shown.  Picnic at Hanging Rock (1975) To Catch A Thief (1954) Picnic (1955)  Or you could watch a movie with 'picnic' in the title!  Love in the Afternoon (1957) Note: I can't find a clip of the picnic so I'm attaching a picture and adding the movie trailer.
