Oldboy

Director: Park Chan-wook

2003 / 120min / 4K DCP

Homer with a ball-peen hammer. Kidnapped and stuffed in a hole without explanation for 15 years of solitary confinement, when Oh Dae-su (Choi Min-sik) is suddenly let loose on the streets, he’s stone-cold pissed off and very, very dangerous. Winner of the Grand Prix at Cannes and an international pop phenomenon, Oldboy was a revenge thriller unlike any that had come before, featuring passages of pure bravura filmmaking (that one-shot hallway donnybrook!) and surreal sicko humor that’ll put you off of sushi for a while. “Put together with brutally uncompromising style [and] the cold-steel edge of a knife against your throat. A dark and thrillingly horrible adventure into the realms of the unthinkable.” —The Guardian
