  • Tales of Cinema: the Films of Hong Sang-Soo,’ a Complete Retrospective of the South Korean Director
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ‘TALES OF CINEMA: THE FILMS OF HONG SANG-SOO,’ A COMPLETE RETROSPECTIVE OF THE SOUTH KOREAN DIRECTOR Sixteen features including the director’s earliest works The Day a Pig Fell into the Well and The Virgin Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors, through recent films Hill of Freedom and Nobody’s Daughter Haewon and others, many of which never received a U.S. release June 3–19, 2016, at Museum of the Moving Image PRESS SCREENING, TUESDAY, MAY 31, AT 10:30 A.M.: NOBODY’S DAUGHTER HAEWON (90 MINS, DCP) AND HILL OF FREEDOM (66 MINS, DCP) Astoria, Queens, NY, May 27, 2016—Museum of the Moving Image is pleased to present a long overdue complete New York retrospective of Hong Sang-soo, one of contemporary cinema’s most distinctive filmmakers with an oeuvre characterized by an unending fascination with the complexity of romantic longing, a playful subversion of narrative structure, and a layered approach to emotional revelation. The series, Tales of Cinema: The Films of Hong Sang-soo, runs June 3 through 19, 2016, and will include all of Hong’s films, sixteen features and two short works, dating from 1996 through 2014, many of which only screened in the United States at film festivals. The retrospective coincides with the theatrical release of Hong’s latest film, Right Now, Wrong Then, which opens on June 24, from Grasshopper Films. The films of Hong Sang-soo are at once deceptively simple and dense with subtle shades of meaning. Hong is often compared to legendary French filmmakers Éric Rohmer—for his extended dialogue scenes and his acute moral vision—and Alain Resnais—for his abiding fascination with the function (or malfunction) of memory and the structure of storytelling.

  • YOURSELF and YOURS De Hong Sangsoo
    Fiche n° 1476 YOURSELF AND YOURS de Hong Sangsoo Du 12 au 18 avril 2017 YOURSELF AND YOURS De HONG SANGSOO Sortie nationale : 1er février 2017 Avec Kim Ju- Hyeok, Lee Yoo Young Durée : 1H26 Comédiehttp://fakeimg.pl/450x600/ dramatique sud-coréenne Le peintre, la femme et son double. Une nouvelle équation amoureuse à résoudre par le cinéaste le plus prolifique du monde – et aussi un des plus inspirés. La merveille, avec Hong Sangsoo, c’est qu’il enchaîne les films comme si tout cela était naturel, facile, simple. Il fait du cinéma comme il respire (vingt films en vingt ans de carrière !). Il respire le cinéma. Ses films, un par un, qu’on les aime plus ou moins, tissent une œuvre cohérente. C’est à nouveau le cas avec Yourself and Yours, qui fait son miel d’un point de départ au premier abord très banal, mais qui va engendrer un prodige de film, un petit feu d’artifice en chambre, un petit bijou, une bouffée de bonheur. Youngsoo , peintre et séducteur, s’attend à chaque instant à ce qu’on lui annonce la mort de sa mère… Il explique à son meilleur ami qu’il veut se marier avec son actuelle copine, Minjung. Mais l’ami lui apprend que Minjung n’est pas une fille correcte. Au lieu d’arrêter de boire, comme elle l’a promis à Youngsoo, elle se livre tous les soirs et sans limite à la boisson en compagnie d’hommes multiples et déclencherait même des bagarres. Une fable sur l’amour vrai Dans un bar, justement, une jeune femme se fait aborder par un homme mûr qui croît reconnaître une certaine Minjung.

  • 2017 MMCA Featured Program in Film and Video Reconstruction of Story 4: Multi-Structures, Ici Et Ailleurs
    2017 MMCA Featured Program in Film and Video Reconstruction of Story 4: Multi-Structures, Ici et Ailleurs 12 April - 20 May 2017 MMCA Seoul, MMCA Film and Video The National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art (MMCA; Director: Bartomeu Mari) presents the fourth installment of its Reconstruction of Story series, Reconstruction of Story 4: Multi-Structure, Ici et Ailleurs, hosted at the MMCA Film and Video theater at Seoul branch from Wednesday, 12 April to 20 May. If the events in our lives are the consequence of coincidences brushing past us, the overall story of those coincidental happenings is surely an undefinable mystery. The moment we recall an actual event to tell someone about it, we realize that it's already become a faint and imperfect image—discolored. Thus, the films in this program investigate stories where irony intermingles with coincidence, as well as the act of storytelling itself. Reconstruction of Story 4: Multi-Structure, Ici et Allieurs highlights films from three master directors who convert their inquiries about the fundamental relationship between life and stories into cinematic narratives. It will feature work by Alain Resnais, a renowned French director who evolved beyond formatting stream of consciousness and existential moments into montages by exploring the essence of our emotions through motifs that employ the drama of everyday life; Nanni Moretti, the creator of several masterpieces that take the ironies of contemporary life and depict his personal existence through satire and humor; and Hong Sang-soo, who renders the “unbearable lightness of being” that's latent within his conventional love stories of feckless men meeting sassy, spirited women.

Kim Minhee (The Handmaiden, Right Now, Wrong Then)—in the role that won her the Silver Bear for best actress in Berlin—plays Younghee, an actress reeling in the aftermath of an affair with a married film director. Younghee visits Hamburg then returns to Korea, but as she meets with friends and has her fair share to drink, increasingly startling confessions emerge. No stranger to mining his own experience for his films, Hong, whose real-life affair with Kim stirred up a media frenzy in Korea, here confronts his personal life with a newfound emotional directness. With an incredibly raw and vulnerable performance from Kim at its center, On the Beach at Night Alone is one of the most dynamic collaborations between director and performer in contemporary cinema.

  • Yashwantrao Chavan
    Yashwantrao Chavan MESSAGE The birth centenary of Shri Yashwantrao Chavan (1913 - 1984) was celebrated last year in a befitting manner by the Government of Maharashtra and the Yashwantrao Chavan Pratishthan, Mumbai. It was an acknowledgement of his stellar contribution as first Chief Minister to the making of modern Maharashtra, as a State with progressive policies and a decentralized democratic set up of administration. In November, 1962, he became the Defence Minister in the aftermath of the India-China conflict. He worked hard to restore the morale of the armed forces and to enhance his strength through modern weapons, better equipment, organisational changes and a harmonious relationship with the armed forces. The efforts paid off in the India-Pakistan conflict in 1965. Subsequently, he held the high offices of Union Home Minister, Union Finance Minister and Foreign Minister of India. In 1979, he became the Deputy Prime Minister of India. He was a freedom fighter, effective parliamentarian and an astute administrator. He was a connoisseur of fine arts, a great lover of books and an author of acknowledged literary merit. He was very fond of watching good films, plays and stage performances of folk-art. The 'Yashwant' International Film Festival is a tribute to the outstanding personay of Yashwantrao Chavan. Yashwantrao Chavan Pratishthan Presents Jointly organized by: Supported by: Government of Maharashtra President Yashwantrao Chavan Pratishthan, Mumbai Shri Sharad Pawar Foreword The Sixth Yashwant International Film Festival is being held from 22nd to 28 th January 2016 at the Chavan Centre.

  • Puzzle of Hong Sang-Soo
    Terez Vincze Panoptikum 2019, 22: 173-188. https://doi.org/10.26881/pan.2019.22.07 Terez Vincze Eötvös Loránd University Showing the Complexity of the Simple – The Art -puzzle of Hong Sang-soo Probably the first two words that comes to mind when one looks at the works of renowned South Korean film director, Hong Sang-soo, are simplicity and confusion. He has shown deep interest in complex (or some might say: confus- ing) storytelling since the beginning of his career, and this interest is still clearly detectable in his work up until today. Since modernist art cinema has an affin- ity with unconventional narrative structures, it is not surprising that an auteur like Hong is attracted to complexity. What is significant is his consistency in developing a personal, and sometimes very experimental concept in relation to complex narratives, puzzle structures and modular forms. He often uses extreme variants of certain stylistic devices in order to challenge conventions of film per- ception and creates experimental lessons in narrative construction that borders being didactic. In a way Hong’s (often black and white) films are the analog answer to the challenges of digital culture, and the modernist art cinema version of puzzle films and database narratives. In my article I intend to demonstrate the very Hongian strategy of producing auteurist puzzle films by creating confusion on the perceptive and narrative level. 173 Showing the Complexity of the Simple – The Art-puzzle of Hong Sang-soo Panoptikum nr 22 (29) 2019 Producing puzzle A certain trend of films that use innovative narrative techniques have become more and more visible in international film culture since the mid-1990s.
