Review of The Handmaiden (2016) by 3-16-2016 — 20 Oct 2016
A near-perfect Korean melodrama masterfully directed by Oldboy's Park Chan-wook and wonderfully adapted from the British novel "Fingersmith", The Handmaiden boasts a terrific cast (led by Kim Min‑hee & Tae Ri Kim), an absolutely beautiful cinematography, and many twists and turns you will won't see coming.
The long runtime may be a turn-off for some, but it feels very deserved and you never want it to end. Surely one of the best movies of the year.
