      I am the lifesaver of your love, but you are obsessed with the lighthouse in the sea that man made up for you

      Without the goddess Kim Min-hee, Fat Brother still loves and hates that old gangster Hong Sang-soo.

      Love his magnanimity, hate his magnanimity.

      He dissects the things about men and women naked, and dismembers the fantasy of love like a rotten corpse.

      He first sprayed perfume on the corpse to confuse you, and then slammed the colorful silk cloth covering the corpse, so that while your nose was full of fragrance, you saw disgusting flesh in your eyes. piece....

      a deconstructed text

      Many of the bridges are very cleverly designed and have a very French feel. "Night and Sun" is an attempt of Hong Sangxiu's concept in France, and "Bukchon Direction" is an attempt to transplant that concept to Korea, and the traces of intentionality are still quite obvious. of.

      The separate performances of the same group of actors in different sections endow the characters with subjective initiative. In fact, Robert Bresson's video writing is also doing such an effort. Hong Sangxiu's...

      The same place ,
      the same hotel ,

      the same fork in the road,
      but told three different stories.

      uncomplicated movie

      Structural Three Breaks
      From a schoolgirl's creation The drama within the drama is a bit experimental
      1 Western female director Korean waiter wife Lifeguard
      2 Western secular woman Korean male director Korean waitress
      3 Western child-like woman Korean waiter The master woman the comforter of women.

      1. In the case of experimental
      female students, this story has a female student’s fiction and a female student’s innuendo
      . In Hong Sang-soo’s creation, this...

      In a foreign country: Hong Sang-soo's reverie in time and space

      It's still the same location, it's still the hotel, it's still the sea, it's still the umbrella, it's still the tent, it's still the lifeguard, it's still the name Anna... It's still the familiar dining table and conversation , is still a matter between men and women, in the eyes of many people, "In a Foreign Land" is a bland and plain boiled water movie composed of these "still", there are no surprises and breakthroughs that can trigger excitement, only a series of Typical Hung approach. But...

      The interesting part about Hong Sang-soo is that it is not only the echoes (Lighthouse, Umbrella) in the individual films, but the echoes (not just the similarities) between many of his films. It would be no exaggeration to say that he made one movie in his life. This one is probably going for an award and is less willing to tell stories (structure, metaphors). Ass: The protagonists of "In a Foreign Land" and "Day and Night" are both in foreign...

    Movie plot

    A young film student and her mother flee a South Korean seaside city to escape debt. Because of his nervousness, the film student began to write a script for a short film to relax his emotions: three women, all named Annie, appeared, and they all went to play in the seaside town they had fled from. The first Annie was a successful film director; the second Annie was a married woman who secretly had a tryst with a Korean man; the third...

    Evaluation action

    "In Another Country" uses a lot of long shots, and the three Annies in the film meet all kinds of people on a trip to South Korea, and the three stories are their own chapters. The story structure of the film is simple and refreshing. The journey of a middle-aged French woman in a small Korean town is no longer as passionate as a young girl, but more calm and casual. The whole film is like the heroine Huppert A meeting of gentlemen...
