  Guests Who Arrived by the Last Train 1967

  ★★★★ Watched 25 Dec 2020 3

  Criminally underrated korean film that deserves the same spotlight as any of Park chan wooks or Bong joon Hos works.A group of people who have trouble adjusting to society .A misunderstood avant garde artist, a man with a terminal disease and a woman running away from her previous life, the film mixes humor and bleakness in a way reminiscent of Casavette's Husbands and of Yu hyun-mok's previous film Aimless bullet .Well worth watching for anyone who's a fan of classic Korean films
