International Films Coming Up at Wexner
HONG KONG FILM:
Days of Being Wild
(Wong Kar-Wai, 1991)
Fri-Sat, May 6-7 / 8:45 pm
Hong Kong director Wong Kar-Wai's Days of Being Wild (94 mins.) received
rapturous reviews at festival screenings in 1991 but only now is being
given a theatrical release. It remains one of Wong's most dazzling
creations, alongside such subsequent triumphs as Chungking Express,
Happy Together, and In the Mood for Love. Set in the hyperreal Hong Kong
of the 1960s, it focuses on a group of beautiful young pop icons-Leslie
Cheung, Maggie Cheung, Carina Lau, and Tony Leung-looking and acting
like movie stars in an atmosphere of fevered eroticism. As the Village
Voice's J. Hoberman noted, it's "the movie with which Wong Kar-Wai
became Wong Kar-Wai-the most influential, passionate and romantic of
neo-new-wave directors."
KOREAN FILM
Joint Security Area
(Chan-Wook Park, 2000)
Wed, May 11 / 7 pm
From one of the most exciting directors working today, Joint Security
Area (110 mins.) broke all box-office records in Korea on its release.
Set in the DMZ between North and South Korea, this mystery follows a
shootout that leaves two North Korean soldiers dead and threatens to
shatter the uneasy truce between the two sides.
