134 - Oldboy
from 1001 by 1 Hosted by 1001 by 1
Britt, new co-host of the show, was scheduled to come back on 1001 by 1 after her initial guest spot talking about Takashi Miike’s “Audition”. Well, it seemed only appropriate to bring that next film into the spotlight for our new season – and we’re talking about Park Chan-wook’s style-bending thriller “Oldboy”. Join us as we delve into the world of Oh Dae-su and his hotel/prison, the huge directorial choices on display, the colors, the performances, and…of course…that f***ed up ending! Plus – we try and wrap our minds around the New York Times review of this film and we discuss the rest of the “Vengeance” trilogy. Also, this week Adam recommends “Speak No Evil” (currently on Shudder and AMC+), Joey recommends “Shiva Baby” (currently on HBO Max & Kanopy), and Britt recommends “Decision to Leave” (currently on MUBI). You can listen to us on Apple Podcast, Stitcher, Spotify, & Google Play. You can find us on Twitter, Instagram, & Facebook at facebook.com/1001by1. You can send us an email at [email protected].
