i just saw sympathy for lady vengeance n im warming up to park chan-wooks approach/he did a lot of rly interesting things cinematically (esp. in the first half/very end) but like w stoker its not rly "satisfying" :////. like u can tell if took cues from japanese vengeance movies of the 70s from toie and the like but its rly not a film in a similar vein & i need 2 rewatch it again w that in mind. park chan-wook never adheres to any rules of "genre" and the fact that these films are marketed as "vengeance" skews how theyre viewed cus that seems to be just the backdrop of them rather than the focus. which in good movies it should be!! or at least more complex. i just dont think he explored either the vengeance or personal sides as deeply as he could've.
