>Film at Lincoln Center (FLC) and Subway Cinema present “Korean Cinema’s Celluloid Fever: The 1970s,” a wide‑ranging retrospective running from May 15 through 26, charting one of the most volatile and inventive eras in Korean film history. With 19 features and eight short films, the series includes newly restored classics, rare cult favorites, and landmark genre films, including many premieres of new digital remasters.>The 1970s appeared to be devastating for Korean cinema: television decimated theatrical attendance, while Park Chung-hee’s military government imposed a complex censorship system that rejected scripts and tore apart completed films. Yet within this repressive climate, a generation of filmmakers devised bold visual styles, smuggled sharp social critique into commercial genres, and quietly laid the groundwork for the global prominence Korean cinema enjoys today. The program spans this “dark decade,” from Kim Ki-young’s Woman of Fire (1970), starring Academy Award winner Youn Yuh-jung in her debut role, to Lee Doo-yong’s The Last Witness (1980), capturing a cinematic landscape shaped by repression, innovation, and transformation.https://www.filmlinc.org/series/korean-cinemas-celluloid-fever-the-1970s/?tab=films

there's a reason why whitewashing was the norm before things stopped making sense.

>>220433664Okay weeb
>>220433764Return to Seoul is a French movie though it just deals with a Korean woman returning to the country she was adopted from by a French couple and reconnecting with her biological parents
>>220436036>weeb
>>220436083It was actually Cambodia that entered it into the Oscars.
>>220436100The director is a French-Cambodian dude who has focused tons of his time and filmmaking projects to Cambodia so I guess that’s partially why it got entered there. The main character is also South Korean living and working in France
>>220436284The whole movie takes place in Korea outside of a few phone calls with the parents. I wouldn't call it a French film at all.
>>220437168It’s directed by a French guy, stars an actress who now lives and works in France, while not the primary language much of the dialogue is still in French, it deals with the experience of a protagonist who’s lived practically all her life in France and of course the original title is Retour à Séoul instead of anything Korean. I’d say it can described to be at least half French instead of purely Korean movie
>>220437321A Korean adoptee returning to parents that may or may not want her is much more of a Korean story. The French stuff is mostly tangential other than her being a European style loose woman.

>Film at Lincoln Center threadJust how much of this board is elderly Jews who have a complaint about the 72nd Street Bike Lane proposal? Is all hatred of Jews on this board simply self-hate?
>>220437945what are you on about
>not one nigga mentions Burning (2018) which might be the best film of the last 10 years
>>220438117>dude weed>dude weed, korea no thanks
>>220433656Yikes, more like historical value than cinematic.
>>220438858I've seen some they're good
>>220433664Uh-ohh... they won't like you saying this.
>>220440365lil tommys
>>220437668It’s a movie about searching your identity and difficulties of being a in place where you have no real connection to outside of being born there. It’s not a Korean story.
>>220441093Very few countries in recent history have had the high level of foreign adoption as Korea.
>>220441131And Korea doesn’t really make stories about it. It’s always other countries that choose to focus on the POV of the adopted kids and the experiences as they return and struggle with their identities
>>220441131White people who adopt non-white kids should be executed.
idiots
>>220438155nta but I can see how a low iq person might think that this movie is about weed. funny
