/Critics Reviews/
<br>
<br>
Film Threat -
<br>
"...the power of images and symbols reveal not only a great artist,
<br>
but also a pivotal era in Korean history."
<br>
<br>
New York Times -
<br>
"For viewers (like this one) not versed in Korean history,
<br>
the movie's broader narrative currents may be hard to follow."
