thai film\u00a0‘uncle boonmee who can recall his past lives’ won the\u00a0top prize\u00a0palme d’or at cannes today. it is a story about a dying man who engages in a conversation with an apparition of his late wife and his son who has reappeared in the form of a red-eyed monkey. i am sure it’s a pretty good movie. but i am also pretty sure there are more factors at work\u00a0putting it over the top.<\/p>\n

coco chanel once said: ‘i set the fashion for a quater of a century. why? because i knew how to express my own time’. the reverse is also valid. i am convince that the raise in the popularity of the korean movies, soap operas, and celebraties had more to\u00a0do with\u00a0north korea than\u00a0people think\u00a0–\u00a0the whole (still ongoing) nukes episode had\u00a0forced not just the north, but also the south korean onto the world consciousness.<\/p>\n

writer\/director apichatpong weerasethakul should have thanked the ‘red shirt’ demonstrators and his (idiotic) prime minister in his acceptance speech for making all these possible for him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
