Our Lee Chang-dong retrospective continues with an essay by @BrndnStrssng on PEPPERMINT CANDY, a grueling story of capitalist degradation told in reverse. Paid subscribers can read every essay in our retrospective...so, you know what to do. api.omarshehata.me/substack-…
The Man Who Saw the Future: Lee Chang-dong’s “Peppermint Candy”

The Man Who Saw the Future: Lee Chang-dong’s “Peppermint Candy”

Lee Chang-dong’s second feature looks as critically at one man’s volatile past as it does towards an even more unstable future.

I wrote about Peppermint Candy as part of In Review Online’s Lee Chang-dong retrospective. Really proud of this one. You can read it here: api.omarshehata.me/substack-…

Replying to @rkylesmith
Well, as I said, I've never felt compelled to hunt them down. There were a whole host of "sensitive, woman's stories" being told in the late '60's/early '70s, to my mind purely reflective of a forgotten cultural moment. (The most important takeway IMO is that Neil Young met a wife that way.) A lot of Cassavetes looks to fall into the same bag for me, hence my lack of interest.

The ongoing series of essays on @MoMA's Long Live The Underground program that I've been editing for @InRO continues apace. Our penultimate piece by Joseph Dimacchia draws on a rich selection of films about the body, memory, and abstraction. Link below!

It is not anti-art to harbor a longing to engage w what interests you rather than what you, as a film critic, have a professional/financial incentive to write about. talking about the movie on this website is labor for us, writing about the movie is labor, GET MORE MARXIST NOW!!!
