Yeonae soseol (2002)
The two girls are actually two girls (don't be confused by the flashback)
Flashback: when the two girls were children, they decided to swap their names. The subtitles say "his" and not "her name" for one of them. That doesn't mean that one of the girls was actually a boy: in the simplicity of their childhood, one of them firstly thought that the other girl was a boy, by mistake. Just that! Or, at least, that's what i understood!
I enjoyed the film, it shows how the characters who look at the beginning so naive, actually are very deep and hide a difficult part of their life, the illness. Also it shows how it is difficult to communicate your own feelings. The photography is amazing. I think it was too sad in the end. Also the plot become quite complicated with all those flashbacks. Very emotional, however.
Romance & Cigarettes (2005)
Just rude language to attract audience
I saw the film yesterday night in Cambridge and I am still very disappointed.
I mean... all the actors play very well (Kate Winslet is perfect, she doesn't play, I think she's like that in her real life).
But the screenplay is rubbish.
Not all the songs were good and necessary in the plot.
The film doesn't say anything new.
Several people left the cinema after the first 30 minutes.
Why, recently, has it been necessary to have so rude language to attract audience?
Turturro: try again.
The Cohen brothers (the actual authors of the film ) should understand that it's time to change!
