Sympathy for Lady Vengeance [Ch'injôrhan Kûmjassi]
PARK Chan-wook | Tartan Films
2005 | 115 min
The sequel to Park Chan-wook's international success “Oldboy,” this film tells the story of Lee Geum-Ja (LEE Yeong-ae), who goes to prison for the murder and abduction of a child on behalf of her accomplice Mr. Baek (CHOI Min-shik), only to find out he has betrayed her. While in prison, she carefully prepares for her revenge by winning the hearts of her fellow inmates with her kindness, thus earning herself the nickname “the kind Ms. Geum-Ja.” Upon her release from prison after 13 years, she seeks revenge with the help of her former prison mates. Due to graphic sex and violence, viewer discretion is advised. View trailer
Sat 9/30, 9:30pm Boardman Art Theatre, Champaign, IL
------------------
No, it's not really a sequel to OLDBOY, just as OLDBOY wasn't a sequel to SYMPATHY FOR MR. VENGEANCE. The three are just Park's Vengeance trilogy...
