Love: the core of us

Why do we watch films? What kind of films do we watch? Our rational logical mind can come up with a lot of points/reasons, of that we can be sure, but sometimes, just sometimes we come across a small piece of work that just touches our heart, makes us immobile for maybe about two hours. This film, is all heart.
How innocent love can be and the power love has over an individual in the purest sense, is captured languidly in this movie. There is nothing more I can add to it by a review. (but as i have to fit the minimum 500 word count, let me just say that if you're dwindling, worried if this is your cup of tea? the answer is yes. This movie is one of those rare ones which transcends all genres, all chalk-marked boxes and compels you to suspend all your intellectualism and forces you to just 'feel')

Pachinko: The game of life?

I happened to have read the book before I started watching this series, week by week patiently (even though I'm more of a characteristically binge-watcher!) and first things first, i was engrossed in the world presented before my eyes. The cinematography is stunning, and I particularly loved the way they synchronized shots cutting through the different timelines of young unmarried Sunja and grandmother Sunja.
One of my biggest criticisms would be how they handled the relationship development of Sunja and Isak. Both the actors were extremely well suited for their roles, but Isak's character should have been handled in a more authentic way. He was glossed over (in my opinion) to make way for Koh Hansu. Koh Hansu's backstory (which was entirely made up by the shows creator and has nothing to do with the original book) which took up an entire episode, was very jarring, they should have launched it after all the episodes were out, maybe as a season's special or something of a similar fashion. It broke the flow of narration.
That being said, I am still looking forward for the next season.
