The free stock ojisan was such a great concept in the age of people using people's images without consent and working all these freelancing jobs, especially stock photos. It was such a genius concept...you're free, your value is not free. Oh I'm here too (haha)
This film is about misogyny and how even a blind person being a man still got protected from his crimes by a society that protects men. She was ugly because she was a rebel, not physical ugliness. She dared to tell the truth and confront men and that made her ugly.
In the end history is still retold to protect the "man" and misogyny of society. Korea is known to protect men even after they've done terrible things because they're "a treasure or national hero". They're invincible while the women are invisible.
It's not bad, really liked the concept and numerous predators, but they tried to make it too comical. That flying kick from the T-Rex (hahaha) and droppings on the old man.
Damn, what a chaotic movie. At first, I was just going to watch it to see if I liked it, but it was so captivating with its unhinged cycles of abuse. The saddest moment was when the brother turned out exactly like the father. The closing scene was perfect, though.... continue eating your soup like nothing happened.
Ayano Go is so believable in these tortured person roles. That equal measure of struggling, compassionate father and the policeman in one person. The ethical questions of euthanasia.
Its almost 60 years old but still such a great movie.
