Lee Chang-dong's #PossibleLove has been selected as South Korea's entry for Best International Feature Film at the 2027 Academy Awards.
His latest drama is a brilliantly unfolding narrative of simmering resentments, shifting allegiances, sexual tensions, and queries around nonfiction filmmaking ethics that keeps revealing new layers and meanings, anchored by four towering performances that hit a varying array of fragile emotional registers.

Nolan’s allergy to anything remotely sexual never bothered me but The Odyssey could’ve used a little something. Odysseus and Calypso were fucking crazy style on that beach for SEVEN YEARS and we see NOTHING like come on

I've been following the "Christopher Nolan used Emily Wilson's translation of the Odyssey" story but I felt like I just didn't have the grounding to judge if Wilson's translation was good or bad

@reeeatine@benardonhard Romeo and Juliet is based off Ovid’s Metamorphoses you clown. Don’t talk classics again because you are sorely in need of edification
