solitary uprising. C. Leaf. 2011.
i saw a movie for the first time today in about 2-3 years. i have a weird fear of theaters; mostly classified as claustrophobic/people-phobic. the last time i went to a theater, i made it a big deal to go to see an actor i really liked, but ended up having an anxiety attack half way along the movie and had to leave. this time i stayed for the entire movie plus the Q&A wit the director. miracle?
the movie was 'i saw the devil' or '악마를 보았다.' the thing is, the english translation doesn't capture the nuance of the actual korean but i don't think there is a better translation for it. anyway...
gory movie.. very gory.. but for some reason, the cannibalism scene looked.. not repulsive. in fact, made me hungry.
don't get me wrong, i never thought of eating human flesh, but the way that the killing/hurting is done throughout the entire movie, i feel like you almost feel refreshed once someone starts eating the flesh that keep being butchered the entire time.
met the director. the director cracked a joke during Q&A, i answered it.
Choi Min Shik. amazing actor. alcoholic. so what?
blood. what about it...
see the movie. premiers on march 4th. BAM.
