Poetry

Very humane. Didn't normally stare at the screen until the credit lines end which is the only sign that my premature mind has to be ready with the forceful consequence granted, in other word: fuck.

I don't mind a slow pace, but this film seriously draaaaaaaged. The lead performance was good though...

William Low

Decent and emotional,only sometimes felt a little bit slow and some scenes feel a little bit awkward and out of place. Top class acting here from the main character,but other characters are so two dimentional.

WhatsUpWill

Had a difficult time with this one since it seems to meander around a lot, losing its way into too much introspection it seems that the plot is always flirting with coming to a halt, but moves just slowly on by to keep viewers somewhat interested. Yoon Jeong Hee gives an impressive performance that complements the emotionally heavy story with a lightness of someone who has been left numb by the events around her.

Haunting. Lyrical. Vibrant. Lee Chang-dong's powerful tale of an elderly woman dealing with hardship through poetry is a completely profound cinematic experience. Yun Jung-hee is heartbreaking as a woman on the cusp of Alzheimer's who discovers that her grandson has committed an unthinkable crime. POETRY is a masterful evocation of a free spirit torn down by the fog of age and tragedy.

Après avoir vu 2 films de Lee Chang-Dong consécutivement, je m'assure que celui-ci est influencé par le nihilisme.

"Poetry" is "Heart" is "That little something we're always looking for in order to make life worthwhile."

Samuel Donath

Devastating. Simple, yet profound. Here we (again) have a film about a lot of different things, but it all adds up to make a incredibly moving portrait of what life is.
