WKW Facsimile
Motel Cactus (1997) - Park
Before Korean cinema was a thing, the popularity and influence of Wong Kar-Wai in Korean cinema loomed large. The year wa 1997s, this Bong Joonho scripted (he also served as an AD), Chris Doyle shot film is a wall-to-wall facsimile curio of WKW aesthetics. It loosely tells 4 different stories of young loves in one location - a conveniently large, primary colored seedy love hotel room for Doyle to run around and document the trysts of young lovers up close and personal with wide lenses. It's all asthete and nothing else. But all so pretty.
