By the Stream
aka Suyoocheon First screened in October 2024
Director: Hong Sang-soo. Cast: Kim Min-hee, Kwon Hae-hyo, Cho Young, Ha Seong-guk, Oh Yoon-soo, Park Mi-so. Screenplay: Hong Sang-soo. In Brief:
Another of Hong's drolly downcast miniatures on art, drink, and quiet rivulets of feeling. Spare, but nicely layered.
VOR:③
Hong makes a point of repeating himself. You wouldn't quite miss this if it hadn't been made, but there's a singular, delicate dexterity here.
