This episode we get into Korean auteur Park Chan-Wook’s modern cult classic, OLDBOY, which recently celebrated its 20th anniversary with a limited theatrical re-release. It’s a tale of revenge, obsession, torture, and terrible truths. It’s also got one of the most influential single-shot takes in cinema history, involving a hammer.
