Early Summer review
My God i hated this film. I mean I appreciated seeing that the movie was portraying the women as independent figures in their society and having the ability to make their decisions but the movie was so drawn out and boring. It did have its funny moments with the younger boy and the people he interacted with, but it still wasn’t entertaining as I hoped it to be. The understood that the director was going along with a different film technique but it was so LONG and BORING. When i heard we were watching a Japanese film I guess I was in over my head expecting the film to be like Hayao Miyazaki except less catoonish (no pun intended). I tried to find a positive outcome to this film as i was viewing it but all i thought was pretty good was the acting and that cut little boy would the film fairly delightful. And the fact that the woman was able to choose her own suitor especially during those times. I didn’t think women in that country had that much freedom.
