The Good, the Bad, and the Weird
by matt
TIFF announces its 2008 line-up. The Gala screening goes to a Korean Western:
Drawing inspiration from Sergio Leone’s 1966 classic The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, Kim (The Foul King, TIFF 2000) returns to TIFF with the first-ever “kimchi western.” This is also South Korea’s biggest budget movie ever.
Looks a bit block-bustery, but still infused with the style of Korean cinema.

Fantastic.
Wow. That could be very very good or very very bad, but good in a over-the-top-this-is-ridiculous-why-korea-why way.
I don’t know which one I’m hoping for.
In any case, thanks for posting.
