Episode 314: Memories of Murder with Sean McGrath

Forrest, Kristina Oakes, and Conan Neutron are joined by Sean McGrath, the other half of Unkind Rewind, to talk about Bong Joon-ho’s Memories of Murder (2003)

Starring Song Kang-ho, Park Hae-il, Kim Roi-ha, and Song Jae-ho

Years before the more International Acclaim of Parasite and English Language films Snowpiercer and Mickey 17, Bong Joon-ho’s second film is probably his most culturally Korean.

It’s also his most brutally realistic, telling the story of the first modern South Korean Serial Killer, who at that time had not yet been caught, and the Police who hoped to bring him down during the transition to democracy. #memoriesofmurder #southkorea #bongjoonho #parasite #snowpiercer #koreancinema #songkang #songkangho #hwaseong #truecrimestories #truecrimecommunity #goldenglobes #thehost #crime #crimethriller #vertical #verticallive #verticallivefeed #verticallivestream #goldenglobes

What we get, is a unique police procedural. Told in a way only a filmmaker like Bong Joon-ho can.
