Best of Cinema | Oldboy (am 03.03. zurück im Kino) „Lache, und die Welt lacht mit dir. Weine, und du weinst allein“ – dieses berühmte Zitat stammt ursprünglich aus dem Gedicht „Solitude“ von Ella Wheeler Wilcox, ist seit 2003 jedoch untrennbar mit einem DER größten Filmklassiker des südkoreanischen Kinos verbunden: „Oldboy“. Der preisgekrönte Mittelteil der legendären Rache-Trilogie von Park Chan-wook gilt für viele als absolutes Meisterwerk und als stilprägender Meilenstein des internationalen Kinos. In der neuesten Folge unseres Podcasts zur Best-of-Cinema-Reihe hat Chris kurzerhand Till und Stu mit leckeren Teigtaschen (vielleicht etwas zu viel Knoblauch) und ganz frischem Tintenfisch vors Mikro gelockt, um über diesen Ausnahmefilm zu sprechen. Zu dritt widmen sie sich den essenziellen Fragen rund um „Oldboy“: Was macht den Film so verdammt großartig? Warum solltet ihr ihn am 03. März unbedingt dank Best of Cinema im Kino erleben? Und welchen nachhaltigen Einfluss hatte der Titel nicht nur auf das internationale Kino, sondern auch ganz persönlich auf sie? Ein Pflichttermin für alle, die sich für südkoreanisches Kino, kompromisslose Thriller und ein echtes Meisterwerk der Filmgeschichte interessieren. Oder kurz gesagt: Das wird der Hammer!

Why do we stay emotionally locked into a story even when the plot sounds flat on paper—or morally repellent in practice? In this episode, Jacob Krueger breaks down Park Chan-wook's darkly hilarious, deeply unsettling No Other Choice to reveal the engine that makes it so powerful: not plot, but structure. Using the film's escalating moral pressure as a case study, Jake shows how structure is built from choices—how characters deal with what happens—and how theme emerges when you drive a protagonist to the moment where they truly feel they have no other choice.

MIN 5: CUMBRES BORRASCOSAS (2 estrellas) La última y esperada adaptación de Cumbres Borrascosas, dirigida por Emerald Fennell y protagonizada por Margot Robbie y Jacob Elordi, ya está haciendo caja en las salas españolas,pero hay mucho que decir y de lo que avisar. Analizamos cómo esta nueva versión del clásico de Emily Brontë apuesta por una mirada más frívola, morbosa y más provocadora de la historia de Catherine y Heathcliff; hablamos de sus aciertos —la fuerza visual, la química entre los protagonistas, la ambición estética— y también de lo que puede chirriar a los lectores más fieles a la novela. Un episodio en el que debatimos si esta Cumbres Borrascosas logra emocionar como el original o si se queda más en la superficie, y en el que ponemos en contexto su estreno en España y la reacción que está despertando entre público y crítica. Min 16: RUTA DE ESCAPE (3,5 estrellas) Vibrante y disfrutable thriller de atracos protagonizado por Chris Hemsworth, Halle Berry y Mark Ruffalo. Una historia que arranca con el plan de un ladrón que quiere dar su último golpe y retirarse, pero que pronto se convierte en un juego de estrategia, tensión y dobles intenciones donde nada es tan sencillo como parecía; en el episodio desgranamos el pulso narrativo de la película, la ambición de su puesta en escena y el duelo interpretativo entre sus protagonistas, y debatimos si estamos ante un thriller elegante que aporta matices al género o ante una propuesta eficaz pero más convencional de lo que promete, poniendo el foco en cómo maneja la tensión, el ritmo y los dilemas morales de sus personajes. Min 25: NO HAY OTRA OPCIÓN (3 estrellas) No hay otra opción supone el deseado regreso al cine de Park Chan-wook, un thriller con aroma a tragedia contemporánea que arranca cuando un hombre corriente, tras perder su empleo, decide que solo hay una manera de recuperar su estabilidad: eliminar a la competencia para conseguir un nuevo puesto de trabajo; a partir de esa premisa tan incómoda como provocadora, la película construye una sátira feroz sobre la precariedad, la ambición y la presión social, con la elegancia visual y el pulso narrativo característicos de su director. En el episodio analizamos su tono, a medio camino entre el humor negro y la tensión moral, el retrato despiadado del éxito a cualquier precio y la manera en que convierte una crisis laboral en un thriller tan inquietante como irónico, preguntándonos si estamos ante otra obra mayor de Park Chan-wook o ante un experimento más pequeño pero igualmente punzante dentro de su filmografía. Min 30: EL VESTIDO (2 estrellas) Protagonizada por Belén Rueda, junto a Vera Centenera y Belén Écija, y dirigida por Jacob Santana junto a Frank Ariza; es el regreso de Rueda al género que la consagró en títulos como El orfanato y Los ojos de Julia, aquí dando vida a Alicia, una madre separada que se muda con su hija Carla a una casa antigua donde un misterioso vestido azul parece despertar una presencia inquietante con consecuencias cada vez más oscuras. ​ ​Min 43: LA PELÍCULA DE TU VIDA, CON EL OYENTE "MARCELUS WALLACE" Atención hoy a la película de tu vida porque nos hace una ilusión especial. En este nuevo capítulo damos voz a un oyente casi anónimo que lleva más de un lustro escuchándonos desde A Coruña. Se nos manifestó vía redes sociales, su nombre en clave es de lo más cinéfilo: MARCELUS WALLACE y con el paso de los años y con sus mensajes de apoyo se ha generado una amistad que hoy deriva en esto, en que queremos darle voz. Y por su nick algun pensará que su peli favorita es "Pulp Fiction", lo cierto es que Marcelus ha elegido la película de 1992 "El último mohicano" y él mismo, de viva voz, explica sus porqués, poniéndonos en bandeja además recuperar una de las primeras secciones BSO que hicimos con Ángel Luque. Min 48: ESPECIAL BSO "EL ÚLTIMO MOHICANO" La banda sonora de El último mohicano, compuesta por Trevor Jones y completada en su tramo final por Randy Edelman, es uno de los grandes hitos del sinfonismo épico de los noventa: una partitura expansiva, de poderosa base orquestal y acentos étnicos que convierte la aventura histórica dirigida por Michael Mann en un relato emocionalmente arrebatado. El célebre tema principal —deudor de la melodía tradicional “The Gael†— funciona como columna vertebral del film, creciendo en intensidad hasta una secuencia final modélica en montaje y música, donde la percusión y la cuerda acelerada subrayan la dimensión trágica y romántica del relato. Más allá de su eficacia narrativa, la partitura destaca por su capacidad para combinar lirismo íntimo y pulsión heroica, convirtiéndose en un referente que marcó tendencia en el cine histórico posterior y fijó en el imaginario colectivo una idea sonora de frontera, épica y sacrificio.

Prestige season is winding down, but not before we cover Park Chan-wook's highly anticipated black comedy thriller No Other Choice. Chan-wook has given us other cinematic gems like Oldboy (2003) and The Handmaiden (2016), so we were excited for his new offering. In No Other Choice, paper industry expert Man-su (Lee Byung-hun) is fired from his job and has no other choice but to kill off his competition to keep his standard of living. The film stars Lee Byung-hun, Son Ye-jin, Park Hee-soon, Lee Sung-min, Yeom Hye-ran, and Cha Seung-won. The film was snubbed by the Oscars, but is sure to make many of our 10 best lists in the forthcoming Oscar Lodgecast Extravaganza!

Ya está en cines una de las películas más esperadas de la nueva temporada, al menos por la gigante campaña de promoción que han hecho sus protagonistas, Margot Robbie y Jacob Elordi. En este episodio analizamos a fondo la versión de 'Cumbres borrascosas' de Emerald Fennell y por qué no nos ha convencido. Además, tenemos un thriller criminal con Chris Hemsworth, la nueva comedia negra de Park Chan wook, y una de las películas más especiales del año, 'Historias del buen valle', la vuelta de José Luis Guerin. En televisión repasamos lo que preparan las plataformas para este año y vemos si andan faltas de ideas o no.

Park Chan-wook ist zurück mit einer bitterbösen Klassenkampf-Satire. In "No Other Choice" entscheidet sich ein Arbeitsloser seine Konkurrenz auszustechen, im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes. Lucas und Christian haben sich endlich mal wieder Memo Jeftic eingeladen, um über den Film zu sprechen. Wir haben mit Memo auch vor einiger Zeit ein Special zu Park Chan-wook aufgenommen, das ihr hören könnt, wenn ihr uns auf Steady unterstützt: https://steadyhq.com/cuts

STEP RIGHT UP, LIVE FROM THE BONE TEMPLE, IT'S MOVIES ARE REEL TALKING ABOUT THE MOVIES OF JAN 2026! JANUARY We Bury the Dead

Lock your doors and hide your resumes—we're diving into the absolute best (and bloodiest) cinema has to offer this week. Whether you're here for the jumpscares or the biting social satire, we've got you covered!The "Venus, Oregon" nightmare finally comes to a close. We're reviewing the final chapter of Renny Harlin's ambitious trilogy. Maya (Madelaine Petsch) is back, but things get weirdly intimate this time as she faces off against Scarecrow in what director Renny Harlin calls a "dark romance." Does this conclusion stick the landing, or are we just happy to finally leave that cabin?Fun Flix Fact: This trilogy was a massive undertaking—all three movies were filmed simultaneously over 91 days in Slovakia. Because they shot out of order, Madelaine Petsch had to keep a "trauma diary" just to remember exactly how much her character, Maya, was supposed to be spiraling in any given scene!Sam Raimi is officially back in the director's chair for the R-rated survival thriller Send Help. Starring Rachel McAdams and Dylan O'Brien, it follows an office manager and her nightmare boss after a plane crash. It's part Cast Away, part Misery, and 100% Raimi chaos.Fun Flix Fact: There is a scene involving a "fake-out castration" that had audiences screaming (and then laughing) in theaters. To get those "geysers of blood" just right, Raimi used his signature practical effects—mechanical bladders that actually drenched the actors. Dylan O'Brien reportedly had to stay perfectly still for four minutes while the "blood" sprayed everywhere!To celebrate 20 years of the film that basically invented the modern home-invasion genre, we're revisiting the French masterpiece Ils. If you think The Strangers is scary, you haven't seen the original inspiration. We discuss how this 74-minute lean, mean thriller still holds the crown for the best "Why are you doing this?" reveal in history.Fun Flix Fact: The actress Olivia Bonamy (who plays Clémentine) suffers from severe claustrophobia in real life. When you see her character panicking while crawling through those narrow, muddy underground tunnels at the end of the film? That's not acting—that's genuine terror!For this week's Hidden Gem, we're talking about the latest masterpiece from the legendary Park Chan-wook (Oldboy). No Other Choice stars Lee Byung-hun as an unemployed paper mill manager who decides that the only way to get a job in this economy is to... well, literally eliminate his competition. It's a pitch-black satire on capitalism that will have you laughing and cringing in equal measure.Fun Flix Fact: Despite the movie being a dark comedy, lead star Lee Byung-hun recently admitted he had no idea he was making a "slapstick" film until the world premiere at the Venice Film Festival! He thought he was playing a serious, tragic character, but when the audience started roaring with laughter at his "clumsy" assassination attempts, he realized he'd accidentally become a comedy star.And if that's not enough entertainment for you, we've even thrown in new trailers to watch and what you can catch on streaming. Press play for the friendliest film discussions this side of Hollywood!

Park Chan-wook is back, and No Other Choice is another masterpiece.In this FULL SPOILER REVIEW, Neil and David dive headfirst into Park Chan-wook's pitch-black thriller, unpacking the insanely precise editing, the escalating moral nightmare, and just how far desperation can push an ordinary bloke when a job is on the line.Along the way, Neil asks the truly important questions:Would David murder someone with a pot plant if it guaranteed employment?Why would David's wife clock him as guilty immediately?And why did the Academy snub this masterpiece of a film?We get into the film's darkly comic tone, its ruthless pacing, the way the editing controls your anxiety minute by minute, and why No Other Choice feels both cruel and weirdly hilarious at the same time. It's tense, bleak, sharply funny, and edited within an inch of its life.⚠️ SPOILERS THROUGHOUT — do not watch this if you haven't seen the film and care about going in clean.Let us know in the comments:

Wir haben keine Wahl. Neben NO OTHER CHOICE von Park Chan-wook müssen wir auch über RETURN TO SILENT HILL reden. Wie vergurkt ist die Videospiel-Adaption wirklich? Gibt es auch Hoffnungsschimmer? Welche Theater-AG musste ihre Bärte und Perücken für den Dreh opfern? Fragen über Fragen, denen sich André und Schröck tapfer stellen wollen, während sie zudem noch auf den Überraschungs-Hit IRON LUNG von YouTuber MARKIPLIER eingehen. Gefolgt von ein paar schnuckeligen Streaming- und Mediatheken-Tipps wie zum Beispiel THE CONJURING 4: DAS LETZTE KAPITEL, das Auto-Kammerspiel HALLOW ROAD, die nicht ganz so furchtbare Comic-Adaption HELLBOY: THE CROOKED MAN, die Stephen King-Adaption THE LIFE OF CHUCK oder ein wohltuendes Wiedersehen mit THE MUPPET SHOW. Komplettiert durch Evergreens wie UND TÄGLICH GRÜSST DAS MURMELTIER, Hirnverdreher wie 12 MONKEYS oder PREDESTINATION, Mammut-Biopics wie AVIATOR oder Klassiker wie DIE VERACHTUNG von Godard. Damit lässt sich doch schon mal ein Wochenende verbringen. (Oder die Rückkehr nach Silent Hill vermeiden?) Doch unabhängig davon, was Ihr machen oder schauen werdet, wünschen wir Euch viel Spaß mit dieser Folge und dass Ihr so gesund wie gut drauf bleibt. Gehabt Euch wohl.

In this episode, Laura Gommans and Hugo Emmerzael dive into what might be Park Chan-wook's masterpiece, No Other Choice, breaking down how it tackles capitalism and the fragile middle-class experience in ways that feel all too real.They also chat about the recent Oscar nominations and the 45th anniversary of Kubrick's The Shining—exploring why the true horror of this classic, how it clashed with Stephen King's vision, and why Kubrick would have loved TikTok film debates.Get tickets to No Other ChoiceGet tickets to The ShiningGet tickets to Film Lecture: How To Build A Haunted Hotel?Get tickets to Drink-Along: The FallGet tickets to Brazil Beneath The Surface

On a national holiday five kids headed out to play with their friends. Their parents assume they're out in the neighborhood like any other day. Yet, by the next day, an entire nation is searching for children who seem to have vanished. This is the story of the Frog Boys and of how sometimes a normal day can quickly transform into decades of unanswered questions.The five boys were Woo Cheol-won, Jo Ho-yeon, Kim Young-gyu, Park Chan-in and Kim Jong-sik.Sources:Wikipedia, Reddit, Channel News Asia, Korea Joongang Daily, Criminally IntriguedSupport us on Patreon for as little as $1 a month, with benefits starting at the $3 tier!Follow us on Instagram at offthetrailspodcastFollow us on Facebook at Off the Trails PodcastIf you have your own outdoor misadventure (or adventure) story that you'd like us to include in a listener episode, send it to us at offthetrailspodcast@gmail.com  Please take a moment to rate and review our show, and a big thanks if you already have!**We do our own research and try our best to cross-reference reliable sources to present the most accurate information we can.

This week we're reviewing No Other Choice which follows a desperate man, abruptly laid off after 25 years at the same company, going to extreme lengths to eliminate the competition for the job he wants. Directed by Park Chan-wook. Check it out.

We're kicking off our brand-new February theme I'm In Love With a Monster with one of the most intense, sensual, and morally messy vampire films ever made: Park Chan-wook's Thirst. This Korean cult classic isn't your typical cape-and-fangs romance—it's a brutal, bloody, and surprisingly emotional descent into desire, guilt, and what happens when immortality collides with very human impulses.In this episode, the Slashers crew dives deep into the film's twisted love story between a devout priest turned vampire and a deeply repressed woman craving escape. We unpack the film's shocking eroticism and philosophical themes.Is this the sexiest vampire movie ever made—or one of the most disturbing? Does love survive when morality dies? And would any of us handle eternal life better than these two absolute disasters?Romantic. Repulsive. Revolutionary. This month, we're falling for monsters—and Thirst is our first crush.

This week on Reel Talk, Jonathan and Honey head to the cinema to see Rental Family, Honey watches Park Chan-wook's latest black comedy No Other Choice, and Jonathan watches the John Bishop-inspired film directed by Bradley Cooper, Is This Thing On?In other news, Honey enjoys her first romantic Welsh national holiday, Diwrnod Santes Dwynwen, and Jonathan's back on fat squirrel watch.If you want to get involved in the show, email us at reeltalk@global.com and follow us on Instagram at @reeltalkross.Listen and subscribe to Reel Talk on Global Player or wherever you get your podcasts.

This week, we're continuing with awards season films. This film received three Golden Globe nominations, was directed by the legendary writer / director of Oldboy, and is about paper and some other stuff. This week is was snubbed at the Oscars. Our reviews were recorded before the snubs. No Other Choice (2025), directed by Park Chan-wook.

Velkommen til 'Cinemajour 85'! Det er første gang i godt og vel 2½ år, vi kaster os over en Cinemajour, så vi skal lige banke rusten af i starten. Men bare rolig. Som episoden skrider frem, finder vi tilbage i et nogenlunde velkendt gear, og det hele begynder at føles "normalt" igen. Vi har til denne optagelse slået lejr på Kim Foss' kontor i Grand Teatret. Kim er både ejer af Grand og en god ven af podcasten, så der skal lyde et kæmpe tak for, at vi må sidde midt i biografens hjerte og tale om film. Vi har en seriøs stak titler med i tasken. Vi ser nærmere på det næste store zombie-kapitel, hvor Danny Boyle har givet stafetten videre til Nia DaCosta. Med '28 Years Later - The Bone Temple' åbner hun endnu en dør i sagaen, der gav os sidste års bedste film (tm), så forventningerne kommer til at spille en rolle. Vi skal også forbi det danske drama 'Begyndelser', der går tæt på et brud, hvor Trine Dyrholm og David Dencik er tvunget til at blive i det, de egentlig var på vej væk fra. Videre til Tokyo, hvor man åbenbart kan lease menneskelige relationer i 'Rental Family', en film der spidder vores moderne behov for nærvær. Med thriller-drama-komedien 'No Other Choice' vender Park Chan-wooks endnu engang tilbage til de danske biografer. En mand mister jobbet og beslutter sig for metodisk at rydde konkurrenterne af vejen i stedet for at opdatere sit CV. Derudover vender vi Lynne Ramsays 'Die My Love', hvor Jennifer Lawrence balancerer på kanten af et sammenbrud, og den rystende 'The Voice of Hind Rajab', der med enkle greb og virkelighedens stemmer sætter sig i kroppen længe efter rulleteksterne. Vi skal også omkring 'The Secret Agent', der byder på 70'er-stemning og brazuca-paranoia. Og så nyder vi virkelig at suse gennem gaderne i Paris i slut-50'erne, mens højrøvede filmskabere diskuterer filmkunstens essens på hvert gadehjørne og kun trækker vejret gennem smøger. Filmen er 'Nouvelle Vague' og vores tourguide er Richard Linklater. Til sidst hopper vi i seriehjørnet med 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms', der kort sagt er en slags "buddy cop"-version af 'Game of Thrones' med Dunk og Egg. Og så tager vi pulsen på 'The Pitt', der netop er landet med sin anden sæson og leverer hospitalsdrama uden filter. Rigtig god fornøjelse!

In the first episode of a new regular, the Empire Podcast brings you the interviews that matter about the movies of the moment. So that means a lovely chat with the legendary South Korean director, Park Chan-wook, and actor Lee Byung-hun, as they (with the help of translators) tell Amon Warmann about their new movie, and first collaboration in over 20 years, No Other Choice. And things get very Irish as Chris Hewitt sits down with Steve Coogan and Éanna Hardwicke to talk about their new movie, Saipan, which tells the story of the real-life falling out between Republic of Ireland manager Mick McCarthy (Coogan) and captain Roy Keane (Hardwicke)just before the World Cup in 2002. Enjoy.

Well, here's some big news: Beer and a Movie is ENDING, and we talk all about it at the top of this week's episode. But don't panic just yet — there are 13 episodes left, and we'd love for you to join us as we close up shop as we go out the only way we know how: talking movies, drinking great beer, and probably getting a little unhinged. This week, Anthony Zoccolillo joins us to dive into Park Chan-wook, tackling his latest awards-buzzy thriller No Other Choice alongside his all-time WTF masterpiece, Oldboy. We talk vengeance, obsession, craftsmanship, and why Park remains one of the most singular filmmakers working today. On the beer side, we crack open Independence Brewing's Be/Rad IPA, then follow it up with a true unicorn: a 2017-bottled Bourbon County Brand Barleywine, aged, boozy, and absolutely worth the wait. The countdown has officially begun. Grab a beer, hit play, and stick with us till the credits roll.

This week, Josh and Drusilla discuss Park Chan-wook's offbeat vampire flick, Thirst. From wiki: "Thirst (Korean: 박쥐; RR: Bakjwi; lit. 'Bat') is a 2009 horror film written, produced and directed by Park Chan-wook. Based on the 1867 novel Thérèse Raquin by Émile Zola,[7] the film stars Song Kang-ho as Sang-hyun, a Catholic priest who turns into a vampire as a result of a failed medical experiment, and falls in love with Tae-ju (Kim Ok-vin), the wife of his childhood friend (Shin Ha-kyun).[8]"Also discussed: Primate, Godard's Made in U.S.A., Black Christmas, Paul Shrader, Tarantino, and more. NEXT WEEK: Angst (1983) Bloodhaus:https://www.bloodhauspod.com/https://www.instagram.com/bloodhauspod/https://letterboxd.com/bloodhaus/Drusilla Adeline:https://www.sisterhydedesign.com/https://letterboxd.com/sisterhyde/https://www.instagram.com/sister__hyde/Joshua Conkelhttps://www.joshuaconkel.com/https://www.instagram.com/joshua_conkel/https://letterboxd.com/JoshuaConkel/

For movie fans, there's nothing quite like losing yourself at a film festival. And that's true whether we're talking about Spokane's annual event or something just a bit more national—or, more to the point, international. On this week's show, Dan Webster, Nathan Weinbender and Mary Pat Treuthart first discuss the newest film by Park Chan-wook, titled “No Other Choice.” But then Mary Pat and Dan share their recent experience attending the 37th Palm Springs International Film Festival.

It's that time of year! Bella, Nick, and Gimme Three Producer Sonja Mereu start our Favorite Films of 2025 Series with three excellent selections. Since these are 2025 releases, we do want to warn our listeners that we get into some spoilers for all three films we discuss. We start with Paul Thomas Anderson's politically-charged epic and Best Picture contender, One Battle After Another. Second, the movie that took the cinematic world by storm earlier this Spring - the powerfully, sexually-charged vampire film Sinners by Ryan Coogler. Finally, Park Chan-wook delivers a remarkably pertinent, emotional, and wildly funny social satire with No Other Choice. Did you see these 2025 masterpieces?

Acclaimed actor Lee Byung-hun (Squid Game, KPop Demon Hunters) has done a lot to pave the way for Korean films in Hollywood — but he never set out to be a performer. Now, he's reunited with director Park Chan-wook for the satirical drama No Other Choice. The film follows an honest labourer named Man-soo who struggles to find employment after being laid off from the paper mill where he's worked for the last 25 years. As his family makes sacrifices, Man-soo grows frustrated by the crowded job market and his methods for securing employment grow darker alongside his desperation. During the Toronto International Film Festival, Byung-hun sat down with Tom Power to reflect on his role in No Other Choice as well as his superstar career.

"No Other Choice," the latest film from director Park Chan-wook, follows a recently laid-off father and husband who resorts to violent means to eliminate the competition as he hopes to reenter the workforce. The film is up for the Golden Globes for Best Motion Picture - Musical or Comedy; Best Performance by a Male Actor in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy; and Best Motion Picture – Non-English Language. Park joins us.

South Korean director Park Chan-wook is considered one of living legends working today, known for his dark comedies inspired by film noir like his breakout hit Oldboy. His work also plays with shifting tones, like the paranoia and romance in the 2022 film Decision to Leave. Chan-wook’s newest film No Other Choice continues this pattern, melding the dark tone of a crime thriller with the slap-stick of a comical farce.
