If you loved The Face Reader, try The King
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Han Jae-rim. If that's the register that drew you to The Face Reader, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The King is
You claw your way up to be a prosecutor in South Korea. But the spoils of power demand compromising choices. Director Han Jae-rim uses chiaroscuro lighting to hint at moral murk. It lingers in the mind like smoke.
