Norang meori

The plot is simple two girls, one with yellow hair and one with orange hair pick up a guy in a club and they end up involved with him. When its revealed that he has a girlfriend he wants to return to things get ugly.

I'm of mixed feelings about this movie. Its a beautiful movie with sexy women, a tense story and a great artistic and music sense (I love the club scenes). The problem is that somehow it never comes together enough to be as good as the combination of its parts.Don't get me wrong its good, especially if you like sexy thrillers. I'm just annoyed that in some ways it simply refuses to be more than just an exploitive thriller instead of rising to something else, which it seems capable of doing since it has all of the material there. This isn't a bad thing, since the film as it stands now is a very good thriller, but some how I thought it could be and should be more, though I don't know what it would have taken to make it cross the line into greatness.

Reservations aside, I think this is worth a shot especially if you like sexy thrillers. Certainly its infinitely better than most of the American and Euro crap that shows up late on Friday and Saturday nights on stations like Cinemax on their "adult" movie blocks.

This is a very interesting piece of erotic cinema with an intense story. Like other Korean movies with erotic themes YELLOW HAIR tends to analyse sexual and social problems wthout moralizing. The film tells the story of two "lost" young girls with yellow and orange hair who are looking for love, but can only act aggressively, if they feel betrayed. The two young female leads are not shy and are acting very authentic with or without clothes. But this is no simple stuff for "peeping toms". There are some longer erotic scenes, especially at the beginning, but they only show the greed for tenderness of these outsiders. If you want to see something about human beings who find no real place in a cold city-world, this is for you. Of course these human beings are sexy young females, but they are no sexual objects for the camera. This is not about the joy of sex, this is a very sad story with a consequent and artistically satisfying ending. You will not forget the last scene, it's mad and sad and sexy ...
