I can't help watching old movies through a modern filter. The melodrama, the aggressive soundtrack, the histrionics, the overacting, the heavy handed directing... I know I'm supposed to love it because it's black & white, old and foreign but honestly it just exhausts me.

Better than the 2010 remake, it's a cautionary tale about the hazards in the emerging, post war, Korean bourgeoisie.

Yes, it could have been a little shorter, but wow, what a twisted tale of obsession and jealousy. 10 out of 10
