Whenever the autumn comes in South Korea, I am reminded of the movie , The Late Autumn(Man-Choo). When I watched this movie for the first time, I only focused on the main actress's pure face. I think Tang-Wei is a great actress. I have never met an angel in my life, but I guess that a beautiful angel's face is very similar to hers. After a while, I watched this movie again, and I realized that Seattle is a very important aspect of this movie. Seattle is notorious for gloomy, foggy, and humid weather. On the contrary, we can know that the sunshine is very valuable even if we only enjoy it for a short time. To avoid spoilers, I cannot reveal too much thing here, but I am sure that if you watch this movie, you will fantasize about a trip to Washington State. I watched this movie again yesterday. It's my third time watching this movie. I found out that all the characters of this movie really want to love and be loved. And sometimes aggressive love can bring us disaster and unhappiness. Anyway, I decided yesterday that I would watch this movie every autumn with bitter coffee because Seattle is famous for coffee. It should be watched again and again...
What a strange but engrossing movie. In English Korean and Chinese. Set in Seattle the story is a about a woman in prison for killing her abusive husband when out on release for a funeral she meets a gigolo and they bond. An unusual romance ensues with a good scene after the funeral. It's interesting to see Hyun Bin as a rascally character. Tang Wei acts a bit too sullen and sometimes the dialogue is strained and out of place. Still worth a watch.
The kind of film, which like a sad song or a poem lingers in your heart for days after it ends.
It's like a poem; melancholic beauty at its purest which can be depicted on screen.
Simply amazing..
It's good to have company. Life does not belong to just beautiful and perfect people. Everyone deserves a chance at life.
This film tells a love story of two strangers who do not use a lot of words to share their innermost feelings. Some may find it boring or confusing with the abstract concepts, weaving the intricacies of life into each and every scene, but it made my brain cells work. Melancholic mood, slow paced, gloomy Seattle, trilingual(English, Korean, Chinese). Raw. It's deep and beautiful. I love it! Binnie and Tang Wei were perfect for the roles as Hoon and Anna.
I loved watching their 2 minutes and 27seconds kissing scene. Oohhlala! The longest in Korean film history!

This movie reminds me of a story told in "Days in the Cloud". A boy fell in love with a demure and beautiful girl at first sight. He expressed love to her and asked if he could continue to communicate in the future. The girl turned back and her eyes were as clear as water. She said, I will enter the monastery tomorrow. "What if I fall in love with you?" The boy asked. "That's like lighting a candle in a bright room." The girl replied. So the boy left in amazement.
"Light a candle in a bright room", what a futile thing. You shine, but you can't shine, you are warm, but you don't snuggle, you slowly exhaust yourself, the red tears drop, the wax torch becomes gray, but no one takes care of you. It doesn't matter if you are more or less, the world will not change at all, and it will still be brightly lit and bustling. You are like an invisible clown with open teeth and dancing claws, but you can't make everyone smile, bored, boring, stupid, in vain, vain, and hot, you work hard, there is no place for you.
Lighting candles in a bright room is like hopeless love. No return, no results, no future, would you like to make such a stupid candle? The boy who fell in love with the nun must have been unwilling. Although he was sad, he left rationally.
Although Tang Wei has no makeup in the movie, his clothes are bleak, and his expressions rarely change. Although Xuan Bin 's handsomeness is very naive and the skills of coaxing women are quite old-fashioned, although the autumn wind in Seattle is lingering, the street scene is sluggish Knowing that their ending is bleak and gradually approaching the end, but I still feel that this is a warm story. Calm but not cold, looking at each other without despair, just like autumn, the sky is cold and the trees are full of dead branches and leaves, but there is a warm autumn sun spilling from the gaps, spotted, and touching.
The scammer and the female prisoner met in strange ways, but secretly fell in love. They are clearly "lighting candles in a bright room." After three days, one is going back to prison and the other is desperate. They ca n't change each other 's destiny, but in the end, they still change something, a gentle sorrow. Zhong rose slightly, which makes the relationship between the two people have a "doom warm" meaning.
Who said shining love must make this world magnificent? They didn't light up the room, but they light up each other's hearts.
At the end of the movie, she was finally released from prison and waited for him in the agreed cafe. He gave her a little hope, like a thin candlelight. He probably won't come, they probably don't kiss next time. But I don't think this is the vain of love.
