Propelled by underdog protagonists who can only communicate through shared corporeal pain and extreme violence, Kim's graphic films have been classified by Western audiences as belonging to sensationalist East Asian "extreme" cinema, and Kim has been labelled a "psychopath" and "misogynist" in South Korea. Drawing upon both Korean-language and English-language sources, Hye Seung Chung challenges these misunderstandings, recuperating Kim's oeuvre as a therapeutic, yet brutal cinema of Nietzschean ressentiment (political anger and resentment deriving from subordination and oppression).Contemporary film directors.Motion picture producers and directorsMotion picture producers and directors.791.4302/33092BChung Hye Seung1971-1646321MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910814396103321Kim Ki-duk4107842UNINA
