An Image’s Ties to a Dark Movie
The inspiration for perhaps the most inexplicable image in the set that Cho Seung-Hui mailed to NBC news on Monday may be a movie from South Korea that won the Gran Prix prize at Cannes Film Festival in 2004.
The poses in the two images are similar, and the plot of the movie, “Oldboy,” seems dark enough to merit at least some further study. Following is The Times’s plot summary:
The film centers on a seemingly ordinary businessman, Dae-su (the terrific Choi Min-sik), who, after being mysteriously imprisoned, goes on an extensive, exhausting rampage, seeking answers and all manner of bloody revenge.
BTW....Do you think it's a coincidence that both Cho and Choi Min sik) are both from South Korea....????????.....Nice Role Model.......
Based on Independent Maggotx research.......Quotes from the Movie "Oldboy" character Dae-su (bottom picture w/hammer:
Dae-su Oh: Even though I'm no more than a monster - don't I, too, have the right to live?
Dae-su Oh: Laugh and the world laughs with you. Weep and you weep alone.
Dae-su Oh: [Dae-su is about to use a clawhammer to yank out someone's teeth] Each one I yank out will make you age for one year. Ready to talk?
Dae-su Oh: Erasing my memory and telling me to find the truth was cowardly. I won. So die like you promised.
