Memories of Murder
Oscar winner Bong Joon Ho's investigative thriller returns to the cinema screen fully restored in a celebration of the filmmaker's unique vision.
The harrowing true story of the hunt for a sadistic serial murderer terrorizing small-town 1980s South Korea, MEMORIES OF MURDER (2003) is Bong Joon Ho's second feature film. The first of many successful collaborations between the four-time Oscar winner director and leading man Song Kang Ho, the film follows the paths of three increasingly desperate detectives as they attempt to decipher the violent mind of a killer in a futile effort to solve the case. Now, seventeen years after its initial release, and a year after the real culprit was identified, this cult classic takes its place as a modern masterpiece.
