Lee Byeong-heon Invited to Sundance Film Festival
http://www.hancinema.net/lee-byeong-heon-invited-to-sundance-film-festival-27434.html
Actor Lee Byeong-Heon left for the U.S. last Thursday to attend the 27th Sundance Film Festival, as his movie "I Saw the Devil" was chosen as a Spotlight Film this year.
Around 9,000 films are submitted for the category every year, and only 200 are selected to be screened. This year's festival opened last weekend and is on until this Sunday in Park City, Utah.
"I Saw the Devil" has been warmly received at a number of major film festivals around the world, including the Toronto International Film Festival and the San Sebastian International Film Festival. It is scheduled to be released in the U.S. on March 4.
Korean Movies: "I Saw The Devil" in the Spotlight at Sundance

Since AICN debuted the U.S. poster for "I Saw the Devil" a couple of weeks ago at http://www.aintitcool.com/node/48083, excitement had been building for the presentation of the Kim Ji-woon revenge thriller at Sundance 2011 (January 20-30). And audiences were not disappointed.
As IndieWire's SPOUT headlined, "'I Saw the Devil' is a Bloody Good Revenge Movie". Starring Lee Byeong-Heon and Choi Min-sik, the Korean movie has already been acquired for distribution by Magnet Releasing, the genre arm of Magnolia Pictures, specializing in films from the vanguard of horror, action, comedy and Asian cinema. March 4 release is scheduled here.
Or as ScreenCrave puts it: "Director Kim Ji-woon's latest thriller doesn't hold back and doesn't hesitate to go where you really don't (but secretly do) want it to go".
And a writeup in DreadCentral describes "I Saw the Devil" as both "shockingly violent and stunningly accomplished". |
