Tale of Cinema Page #2

Your reasons?

You have reasons?

Explain!

I...

I've always found it hard

communicating with you.

You know that.

For nineteen years now,

I've felt you don't understand me.

What a pretty speech! Shut up!

I'm hard to communicate with?

I've always given you

what you wanted.

And now It's all my fault?

He's not entirely wrong.

You can be difficult.

What the hell do you know?

You blame your mother

and you call yourself a man?

I killed myself raising you

and you insult me, you little sh*t!

You say It's because of me

that you want to die?

So die! Why have you come back?

Mom!

Can't you let me speak?

I Understand.

I f***ing understand!

I'm going to kill myself for real.

I may as well kill myself!

Goddam maniac!

Be polite with mom.

Stay out of this.

Sit down.

Nobody cared.

Mom! Mom!

I got the letter this morning too.

Is it that serious?

He won't last much longer.

There's no hope.

His old classmates are meeting tonight

to do a collection.

It's to help hisfamily.

Besides, it's a long time

since we last saw you.

Come tonight.

Actually, I wanted to see his retrospective.

I'm at the cinema.

Really?

I'm thinking of going too.

They're showing all hisfilms?

Three shorts and a feature.

it ends tomorrow.

I won't be able to go.

We'll expect you tonight.

I have a lot to do,

but I'll come if I can.

Thanks for calling me.

Are you well?

Me? I'm fine.

Right, I'll be going now.

The hospital and operation costs

have reached one hundred million wons...

Such details are obscene!

What are you doing here?

And you? It's been ages.

You came to see the film,

so did I.

You're looking better, healthier.

Marlboro reds?

Like in the film?

From time to time.

Let me have one.

I've always been tempted.

Did you see the film?

I'd seen it before.

This was the second time.

His films are good.

It's charming...

Are you coming tonight?

I'm not sure.

What should I do?

I'm having lunch

with my wife and children.

Want to come?

- To have lunch?

- Join us, have you eaten?

It's just that...

I have so many people to see.

Let's go.

How many children?

- Two.

- That's good.

You can eat a whole portion?

- Sure! You bet we can!

- Yes, we can.

Two portions of shrimp then.

Two shrimps,

one sweet-and-sour pork,

three noodles.

- What an appetite...

- They love shrimps.

You don't want any noodles?

No. We'll see later.

- Don't smoke.

- I'm not smoking.

You came to see his film.

You were close to him,

weren't you?

At university, yes.

But I'd stopped seeing him.

You have things in common.

Such as?

You act cool,

you love women.

Your film would have been

in the same vein, right? Come on...

in any case, I've never eaten a beef rib

as good as the one at your place.

A beef rib?

- Yes...That was years ago!

- You remember that?

It's kind of you to remember.

it was really good.

The meat melted in your mouth.

Do you remember how many times

you complimented your wife?

Complimented my wife?

You did that?

Six times.

I remember counting.

You complimented her six times.

You remember such odd things!

I'd never heard anyone

make compliments about food.

Mom, I think I have a fever.

I feel cold.

Really? Let me see.

You're hot.

Perhaps It's indigestion.

Do you feel cold?

What's wrong?

She says she feels cold.

Let's go home.

Come here.

There's no need.

She's cold.

Feel better?

Yes.

Thank you. Where are you going?

I'm going home before the meeting.

Want a ride?

I haven't made my mind up yet.

Get in. I'll drop you off somewhere.

- It's at six?

- Yes. Come. They'll all be there.

I like the color of your car..

Get in, It's cold.

Thanks.

- How do you feel?

- it hurts.

We'll soon be home.

Can I smoke?

Wait a bit.

Because of the children.

All right.

Can you drop me here?

- Here? Why?

- No reason. I have to...

- Let me out here.

- All right.

Thank you.

I'd let you keep it,

but my mother bought it for me.

Sorry.

Bye.

it was good to see you.

Okay. Close the door.

Hurry!

I'll close the door.

It's visible all over the city.

You're beautiful! Hurry, hurry.

Just a second, please.

- What's your name?

- Kanghi.

- Kanghi?

- Yes.

You're really beautiful!

- Really!

- Thank you.

We're big fans! Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Hello.

Hello.

Are you on a pilgrimage?

I'm sorry? What do you mean?

Do we know each other?

Who doesn't know Choe Youngsil?

I admire you.

I'm not a star.

Thank you anyway.

We just saw the same film.

Are you returning to the locations?

You're so classy!

What makes you say that?

I went to the same film school

as the director.

He spoke about you.

I know things about you.

I could even have gone on the set.

- Are you going to Namsan next?

- To Namsan?

No.

Talking of Namsan, Is that where

his classmates are meeting?

Will you be there?

Why?

I've been asked

to contribute to the collection.

I'd like to go,

but I may not be able to.

I Understand.

What about you?

I ought to go, but...

not everyone there likes me.

I see.

Are you a director too?

Yes, how did you know?

You were at the same school.

Be in my film when I shoot it.

I'm serious.

if you were to accept,

that would be a big help.

Why not?

Send me the screenplay.

All right.

Can I have your address?

I'm not sure.

I don't know you.

if I see you this evening, perhaps...

I prefer that.

if you want.

Let's shake hands.

All right.

Like in the film?

We shall not leave in the loved one's

heart nothing but light memories

Now I know

A love that is too deep

Comes to an unhappy end

I shall pray, my love

- Here you are!

- It's been ages.

Hello.

- Sit down here.

- Thanks.

It's really been ages!

You're late!

I walked

from the top of the hill.

Really? Why?

No reason.

I've lost my wallet. I'm broke.

What about your credit card?

I'm beyond my credit limit.

You'll never change.

Sorry about earlier. You understand,

It's a gift from my mother.

I didn't know if we'd meet again.

That's all right. Forget it.

Vice-chairman,

how much must we donate?

I've lost my wallet,

I'm a bit short.

Give what you can.

Go ahead. Whatever you can spare.

- Here. It's not much.

- Thank you.

Do you still drink as much?

No, I don't drink anymore.

I have to think of my health.

I'm getting older.

I met some people up there,

but I didn't drink.

You're right, you're no spring chicken.

But you're looking better..

I don't like drinking anymore.

Have a glass anyway.

Thank you.

Don't get drunk, please.

What's your problem?

What's the matter?

- It's been ages, hasn't it?

- Stop it!

Muscular. Do you work out?

You're muscular.

Tongsu! if you plan to get drunk,

say so. Understand?

I Understand.

- Have some meat.

Thank you.
