| Summary, etc |
From case cover:<br/>Like Wong Kar-wai and Tsai Ming-liang, New Korean Cinema luminary Hong Sangsoo marries Asian and European sensibilities. Michael Atkinson in The Village Voice cannily dubbed him "the love child Antonioni and Hou Hsiao-hsien never had", while Woman Is the Future of Man could be described as a postmordern, post-romantic riff on Rashomon and Jules and Jim, refracting an unstable menage a trois through two misaligned perspectives.<br/>The film's ruefully comic view of mordern love centers on the Mutt-and-Jeff dynamic between two mismatched buddies -- tall, placid art professor Munho and short, volatile filmmaker Hunjoon -- who share an inconsistent passion for the same woman, artist-turned-bar-girl Sunhwa. Shuttling between the summery past and the snowy present, the two recently reunited friends drunkenly recall their failed relationships with Sunhwa, littered with broken promises, fumbled opportunities, and sexual gaucheries. Employing a hyperobservant camera style acutely sensitive to quicksilver shifts in the emotional weather, Woman Is the Future of Man is a wry, wistful discourse on the immaturity of men, the fickleness of memory, the elusiveness of love.<br/><br/> |
| Expansion of summary note |
From IMDB:<br/>On a very cold winter morning, two friends meet after many years. Hun-joon who has just got back from USA after his film studies and Mun-ho, a part time lecturer at a university, reminisce over the past, drinking in a Chinese restaurant. Hours of drinking and talks, mixed with the recollections of the past bring them back the memory of a woman. A woman they both were romancing during the same period of time. After wandering in their own version of reminiscence, they decided to find and meet her, who turns out to be running a hotel lobby bar in Puchon, a satellite city near Seoul. The woman, Sun-hwa, without showing much emotion upon their appearance, asks them to wait in front of her apartment. When she returns, they begin a decadent drinking party till the daybreak. |
