If you loved The Day He Arrives, try Right Now, Wrong Then

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Hong Sang-soo, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Day He Arrives, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Right Now, Wrong Then is

Hong Sang-soo asks if you've considered how one day can go. A film director accidentally arrives in town early for a screening, meets a local artist, and spends the day with her. It’s a double feature, sort of, since the same scenario plays out twice with slight variations.
