SCFZ poll: Kim Ki-duk

[flip]

i'm a bit more lax about the criteria now, but we'd need a bit more araki viewership to go ahead. i thought bure might have seen a lot?

if anyone has seen 8+ of rosi, takahata or jee-woon (i really need to learn what names are first and last in korean naming, sorry if i keep messing that up) they could be options if araki isn't going to work, i've seen 3, 1 and 1 respectively so can't help... would be surprised if jee-woon kim has the views, but rosi or takahata might

[St. Gloede]

Kim Jee-woon: 7
Francesco Rosi: 5
Isao Takahata: 8

(Re: Names - As far as I can tell anything with a dash in Korean is generally the first name)

[wba]

Kim: 1
Rosi: 4
Takahata: 3

[oscarwerner]

All 3 great in different way. But i have :
2 by Kim Jee-woon
8 by Francesco Rosi
2 by Isao Takahata

[---]

I have insufficient Araki. I'm a huge mysterious skin fan but I've only seen 4 total

[ofrene]

Gregg Araki : 2
Kim Jee-woon : 6
Francesco Rosi : 3
Isao Takahata : 1

[rischka]

kim jee-woon 2
gregg araki 2
francesco rosi 3
isao takahata 5 ♥

[john ryan]

I have 7 each for Rosi and Takahata, and can watch 1-3 more before a poll starts on Tuesday. I can do the same for Kim Jee-woon, but I only have 5 already.

[greennui]

4 Araki, 6 Takahata

[Caracortada]

Seen 8

1. Samaritan Girl
2. The Bow
3. Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter... and Spring
4. 3-Iron

[john ryan]

I now have 8 Araki, if that helps.

[flip]

it looks like rosi has slightly more views than araki, so i think we'll do a rosi poll now, and we can do araki in a round or two, when it might be the case that people have seen a bit more of his work

[rischka]

just fyi -- i'm pretty positive the director's surname is kim, unlike the link in the header

[Umbugbene]

Yup, it's Kim.

Korean, Chinese, Japanese, and Hungarian put the surname before the personal name. English tends to respect the order in Korean and Chinese (Hong Sang-soo, Zhang Yimou) but we reverse the order of Japanese and Hungarian names (Yasujiro Ozu, Miklos Jancso) to suit our convention.

[rischka]

since we have a korean member on the forum (ofrene), we should be able to get this right

[Holymanm]

And then weebs like me sometimes put Japanese surnames first, to honour them over our own conventions, and it's all a jumble!

(Are you part Hungarian? I've never known anyone who knows anything much about the place without having roots from there...)

[ofrene]

Surname is Kim. That's for sure..

Not that I know of. I've been there a couple times though. By the way, the National Film Institute of Hungary has put some Hungarian films w/ English subtitles online during the pandemic:

Thanks for sharing, some good selections on there!

For anyone wanting to download any for future watching like I did:
- Use a vimeo to mp4 converter (such a vimeo-downloader) to find the actual mp4 link (click on video mp4 file), save the video as an mp4
- to get the English subtitle file, play the video with english subs on, right click > inspect element/page source > network > all > locate the .vtt texttrack in the network stream > copy that url > save page as an .srt

Completely missed the link, and so many great films readily available <3

Will go over the list soon to what I have and have not seen.
