What I want to say is just my opinion. I have only seen "Empty Room" before, and I think it is a very, very good movie. It tells all the emotional entanglements in the world in silence, rich and delicate. Of course, yesterday, after watching "The Samaritan Girl", my heart was indescribably heavy.
If "Empty Room" made me feel a little happiness, then "Samaria Girl" made my heart hurt.
Young Jae's innocent smile even hung on her cheeks sweetly until she died, making people think she was just asleep. What is she laughing at? Laugh at the ridiculous things in the world? A high school student has such a pure smile that can see the world The foreign stories that I have to tell when I go to school, to the punishment of the person she assisted after finding out that she assisted in dating (I really hate to say that she is a prostitute), and even the two different endings at the end, every thing is different. An act is all out of a deep love for her.
A dull sound, whether it was due to Ying Zai's escape, the lawyer's apology, or the venting of anger on the murdered man, every sound resounded in my heart, making me tremble. What kind of movie is this? What kind of director is Kim Ki-duk? Why can he portray death so easily? Why can he show the dark things so bloody and righteous?
It cannot be denied that the reason for watching this movie at the beginning was the appeal of the name "Erotic Master" and the aesthetic feeling that "Empty Room" brought me, which made me believe that this movie, which won the award in the same year, will also be very detailed and capable. Impress me. It can also be said that I went to see this movie with "desire". However, what I didn't expect was that what I saw turned out to be such a movie full of "missing", a movie that "impresses" me in this way.
Now think about "Samaria Girl" again, close your eyes, what comes to mind is Ying's mocking but clean smile when he jumped off the building, and the white exhaust from the car struggling on the sandy ground at the end of the film... Presumably these two This scene must have given me a very strong shock, otherwise how could I have such a fresh memory...
Digression: When I searched for these two movies on major websites, I found that "The Empty Room" is far better than "Samaria" There is a market for "Girls", and there are far more people who have watched "The Empty Room" than "The Samaritan Girl", and even many people only know "The Empty Room" but not "The Samaritan Girl". It's hard to say how I feel when I see such a situation. I'm just wondering, is it necessary for everyone to know that there are dark corners of the world that the sun can't reach...
