South Korea/2003—directed by Park Chan-wook
In this influential, unclassifiable film from director Park Chan-wook (Lady Vengeance, Decision to Leave), the main character Oh Dae-Su is suddenly, inexplicably released after being kidnapped and held captive for 15 years.
Desperate to understand the reason for his ordeal, he sets out to track down his tormentors, only to find himself in a cat-and-mouse game that leaves him five days to retrace his past, track down his captors, and, above all, seek violent revenge.
The result is a thriller that’s been an inspiration to filmmakers (Spike Lee did a 2013 remake), and is now returning to the big screen to celebrate its 20th anniversary and stunning new restoration. (120 minutes)
