Can’t Live Without You
Writer
"This woman. A strange woman who is walking right in front of you now. This woman is dragging a bag of her body to a stocking with holes. Who is this woman? A woman who is like a boxer who just finished the race, sprays the scent of pars everywhere instead of perfume. An attractive woman who makes everyone look at once when they walk down the street. A charming woman who makes everyone look back once she walks down the street. A woman who is so pretty as to want to crush out of shape with a hammer. A woman who is so cute girl as to dig out her eyes. Who is this woman?"

The Nine Lives of Korean Cinema
Himself
South Korean cinema is in the throes of a creative explosion where mavericks are encouraged and masters are venerated. But from where has this phenomenon emerged? What is the culture that has yielded this range of filmmakers? With The Nine Lives of Korean Cinema, French critic, writer and documentarian Hubert Niogret provides a broad overview but, nevertheless, an excellent entry point into this unique type of national cinema that still remains a mystery for many people. The product of a troubled social and political history, Korean cinema sports an identity that is unique in much modern film. Niogret's documentary tells of the country's cinematic history - the ups along with the downs - and gives further voice to the artists striving to express their concerns, fears and aspirations.
