films from Korea at the MFA

Wednesday thru Sunday at the Boston MFA—The Korean Film Festival! If you haven't seen Korean movies lately, with the likes of OLD BOY, JOINT SECURITY AREA, and THE PRESIDENT'S LAST BANG, you are missing out. Korean cinema (at least the good stuff that importers are choosing to bring over) is totally hitting my entertainment sweet spot (I think it's a small tonka truck lodged in my duodenum). The Good Stuff is full of character-driven genre-busting and delicious visual style.

I'm gonna try to hit something here every evening, so long as there's no conflict with volleyball. =)

Kicking it all off tomorrow night is another chance to catch THE HOST, which I *love* for its everythingness, and saw twice at the Brattle's Boston Fantastic Film Festival.

Check this cinematic fun out!
