Sympathy for Mr. Audience
We've done quite a bit of raving about the unbelievably talented Mr. Park Chanwook on this site, most recently in order to convince all of you to go see his current magnum opus, Oldboy. But in case you want to learn more first, the Times has a good short article about him, where he came from, and what he's trying to do. So check it out, and if you'll still not convinced, well, you're just have to take our word for it, won't you? Besides, your local indie rental place should have at least one of his earlier films.
