    I've been trying to understand Huppert's motivation to take on this drama. He played three people, but he seemed to be one person. The last person was drinking the bottle that was thrown on the beach. Wasn't it the first person who was on the beach when someone else mentioned to be careful? What are those. Korean soju runs throughout. There is basically no story. Much like Rohmer that I can't...

    The variation-type parallel time-space structure constructed by borrowing the same scenes and actors is quite interesting, but the film creation operated by Hong Sang-soo does not add details, transcends subjective emotional descriptions and directly talks about the solidified experience of gender interaction. What's the difference?...

    3.5, the chat is a bit awkward, although it can be understood as a result of the language differences between foreigners; three "scripts" come up, and the three stories have a slight connection, but the same beach is different. I liked the first two stories better, and it was interesting to take out the umbrella left by another person at the...

    When the paid subtitle party saw that the Montblanc read by the Korean monk hadn't been translated, they really didn't dare to laugh at it. Looking forward to re-watching the film version at the Film Festival or the Korean Film Festival next year, Xiuxiu has been...

    I have figured out the rules of Hong Sangxiu's game a little bit. It seems that the waves are calm, but there are hidden secrets. It seems simple and casual, but it is still wretched. The best show is the process of expressing the frustration and sublimation of desire, and then embellished with small humor and small experiments. Push and pull the lens, giving people a voyeuristic and exciting feeling, well, to be...

    The three stories are too repetitive, and I really watched it with relish in the mood of "Can this film be more boring?" I still like to watch the lewd movies made by Hong Sangxiu, and the relationship between the sexes is also more naked and frank. It's really not suitable for this kind of small...

    The freewheeling three-stage style hides Hong Changxiu's narrative context and tricks

    When a group of famous Asian directors turn to foreign countries to shoot non-native language films, the theme and script are the most critical, followed by the actors. After all, it is aimed at Western audiences and the market. The director knows that actors play a pivotal role in the success of...

    Hong Sang-soo's insight

    This is a movie about the enlightenment, to be precise, the enlightenment of Hong Sang-soo. The first two stories ask questions, the latter one is for a Zen master to give the answer. In fact, the problem with the first two stories is pervasive in all Hong Sang-soo's films, namely people who lie,...
