Park Chan-wook is a master
This was immaculate.
The things capitalism will put you through. Love how this film turns a mirror to its audience to decide what’s moral. Who to root for? At what act do we decide to become horrified and who gets chastised? No one wins. There is no right or wrong under this system. Just eat or get eaten. It’s a tragic reality.
The approach to these topics reminds me so much of Memories of a Murder. The tone will go from outrageously silly to petrifying within a blink.
Amazing sound design, beautiful cinematography, impeccable editing. The best stuff is coming out of Korea and has been for quite a while.
