OLDBOY (20th Anniversary Restoration)
About
“Quite an achievement then, and well worthy of its Cannes prize.” – Tim Out
“Shakespearean in its violence, Oldboy also calls up nightmare images of spiritual and physical isolation that are worthy of Samuel Beckett or Dostoyevsky.” – Wall Street Journal
Dae-Su (Choi Min-sik) is an obnoxious drunk bailed from the police station yet again by a friend. However, he’s abducted from the street and wakes up in a cell, where he remains for the next 15 years, drugged unconscious when human contact is unavoidable, otherwise with only the television as company. And then, suddenly released, he is invited to track down his jailor with a denouement that is simply stunning.
