The Master of the World: Buster Keaton ③ Review of Representative Works — “Our Hospitality” (1923) and “Sherlock Jr.” (1924)

The Master of the World: Buster Keaton ③ Review of Representative Works — “Our Hospitality” (1923) and “Sherlock Jr.” (1924)

〈Sherlock Jr.〉 wasn’t an awkward 44-minute runtime; otherwise, it would easily rank among the cinema’s greatest masterpieces.
Slapstick motion without end within the frame,〈Our Hospitality〉(1923)Willie McCay heads back to his hometown to inherit the land. The railroad tracks are a mess, and even the dam collapses—he forges ahead through a perilous route.

The Master of the World: Buster Keaton ② ‘The Great Unflinching Face’ Loved Across Time

The Master of the World: Buster Keaton ② ‘The Great Unflinching Face’ Loved Across Time

Buster Keaton turned the ‘Great Unflinching Face’ (Great Stone Face), unaffected by whatever was happening around him, into his own unmistakable style and personality.
Buster Keaton doesn’t smile—so why do we laugh when we see him? In film, action images are always a subject of curiosity, and also something we keep investigating—an inquiry that never truly stops. Our eyes automatically respond while watching films, trying to harmonize the many formal elements...

What Are You Doing Here? Spot the Hidden Actors in 'Baram'

What Are You Doing Here? Spot the Hidden Actors in 'Baram'

The unofficial 10-million-admissions film 〈Baram〉 spawned the spin-off 〈Jjanggu〉, which opened on the 22nd. Actor Jung Woo has insisted that 〈Jjanggu〉 is not a sequel to 〈Baram〉, but since it’s based on the autobiographical story of the protagonist Jjanggu , 〈Jjanggu〉 inevitably recalls 〈Baram〉 in...

Is That a Goomba? Game-Based Films That Successfully Reinvented Themselves from Bywords for Flops

Is That a Goomba? Game-Based Films That Successfully Reinvented Themselves from Bywords for Flops

It feels like a lifetime has passed. Gone are the days when "video game adaptations" fought over 0.5 or 1-star ratings; now we live in an era where they can reliably deliver a decent average. Even Mario once went through a period when it was the epitome of a "worst movie," a reputation even fans...

[Chua-Young’s Music Box] Music for the Purification Ritual of Wounded Youth: “Girls Band Cry”

[Chua-Young’s Music Box] Music for the Purification Ritual of Wounded Youth: “Girls Band Cry”

I get hooked on the music in the film. Music sometimes conveys intimate feelings a character can’t fully express through the visuals alone—or through the lines you hear. It can also serve as a window into the creator’s hidden intentions. For me, understanding film music was one way to connect with the movie. “Chua-Young’s Music Box” lets you listen more closely to the movie’s voice through music. (P.S. While listening to the music, I hope you’ll read the article.)
Following the first film, 〈Girls Band Cry: The Movie—Youth Rhapsody〉 (hereinafter 〈Youth Rhapsody〉), the sequel 〈Girls Band Cry: The Movie, Hey Our Future〉 was released in theaters on April 16. This theatrical release is a compilation film: while it faithfully follows the existing story, it adds...

'21st Century Princess Consort' — Yoo Su-bin and Lee Yeon, the Aides Who Are a Real Pleasure to Watch

'21st Century Princess Consort' — Yoo Su-bin and Lee Yeon, the Aides Who Are a Real Pleasure to Watch

It’s a real pleasure to watch. The drama 〈21st Century Princess Consort〉, which has been airing since April 10, is set in a Republic of Korea where a constitutional monarchy is in place, and it delights viewers by blending capitalist flavor with the traditional charm of the Joseon era.

[Joo Seong-cheol’s Lockers] Lee Cronin’s The Mummy and Murderous People Season 2 — and a Scorpion Jacket That Feels Like the Rise of Drive

[Joo Seong-cheol’s Lockers] Lee Cronin’s The Mummy and Murderous People Season 2 — and a Scorpion Jacket That Feels Like the Rise of Drive

I get hooked on the objects in movies. I can’t help but get lost in questions about why the director, cinematographer, production designer, or even the actors put that thing right in front of the camera. “[Joo Seong-cheol’s Lockers]” is a record of those movie objects that land lightly—right onto my eyes.
Watching 〈Lee Cronin’s The Mummy〉 , you can feel the full-on force of Blumhouse as it revives a franchise that seemed long dead: 〈Mummy〉. The first 〈Mummy〉 (1932), powered by the charisma of actor Boris Karloff, was basically the flagship of the “Universal Horror” era.
