 Category : EntertainmentA Day Off (Blu-ray) (Korea Version)Price: USD32.99 One of the best Korean directors of the 1960s, Lee Man Hee made 50 films between 1961 and his death in 1975. Best known for his thrillers and action films, the director's works sadly remain mostly unseen by modern audiences (prints of his masterpiece Late Autumn are said to no longer exist). Released in 1967, A Day Off is a bleakly poetic portrait of poverty, loss and desperate fallacy. A poor young man finds out his lover is pregnant. With no money to raise a family, the man resorts to stealing his friend's money to pay for his lover's abortion. While she's in the operating room, he goes off to a bar and meets a woman, starting off a series of bad decisions that sends his life on a downward spiral. This edition comes with a Korean-English booklet , three postcards and special features , including image collection, before and after restoration feature, GV clip with film critic Heo Moon Young, and commentary by film critic Jung Sung Il, writer Baek Gyeol and Heo Moon Young.Other products from YesAsia |
