Buy 3-Iron DVD
Sábado, Enero 2nd, 2010
When Tae Suk (Jae Hee) and Sun-hwa (Lee Seung-yeong) meet or more to the point peek each other for the first time, it takes but a moment for them to realize they were meant to be together: one, very unexcited moment you peek because neither of them assure nary a word during the bulk of Ki-Duk Kim’s “3 Iron.” In fact, in this movie it is only the loud mouths, the abusers, the malcontents, the bullies, the unpleasant guys who stammer out loud and when they do, it usually is a wail, a build down or an abuse.
Tae Suk has an ingenious style of living: he breaks into unoccupied homes and settles down for a night or two. He even does any laundry he finds and neatly hangs it out to dry. He also repairs anything he finds broken: he is the ultimate, caring intruder as, even though he eats whatever is in the refrigerator, he often leaves the home cleaner than he finds it.

It is during one of those “stays” that Tae-Suk meets Sun-hwa, who escapes her abusive husband and joins Tae-Suk in his vagabond ways. Almost immediately, Tae-Suk and Sun-hwa are in sync in what becomes “their” quest to glean the perfect home to have. One such home is decorated in the veteran Korean-style with a stunning garden and the two are the most unruffled and at peace there as befits their obviously loved and care-for surroundings.
As with all fables, and “3 Iron” is definitely one, the valid world intrudes in the person of Min-kyu (Kwon Hyuk-ho), Sun-hwa’s abusive and contemptible husband who promptly buys off the police and has Tae-Suk arrested and sends Sun-hwa into a major depression.
Director Ki-Duk Kim (the sublime “Spring, Summer, Topple, Winter…and Spring”) delicately slices launch Korean society and exposes the gross underbelly and the steady brutality the often passes for treasure and caring. And by extension, he exposes this fakery underneath all societies with the intrepid exhaust of wit, humor and a luminous witness on what makes us all tick. That he also creates a romance that rivals that of any unusual shroud pair impartial adds to his masterful achievement.

“3-Iron” is a delicious surprise. Kim Ki-duk’s “Spring, Summer, Topple, Winter” was so lyrical and so cinematically graceful that it is unbelievable that this DVD keeps up that film’s quality. The fact that most of the film is nonverbal makes this subtitled drama particularly easy for international audiences to adopt. Jae Hee Song as the young lead Tae-suk is expedient looking and keeps our eyes glued to the conceal. The modern residence of a young man who breaks into houses and apartments while the owners are away is filled with lyrical details. In one scene, he carefully selects a toothbrush before sitting on the toilet brushing his teeth. He seems to experience the lives of the people by seeing their surroundings, cleaning their clothes, fixing appliances & eating their food. Lee Seung-yeon was in a 1996 film about a serial killer called “Pianoman” before taking on the role of Sun-hwa. Sun is an abused wife of a controlling husband. Tae-suk inhabits her house as she quietly observes him taking a bath and reveals herself to him as he lies in her bed self-stimulating to nude pictures of her from an album. Her middle worn controlling husband Min-kyo played by Gweon Hyeok-ho returns from a business journey. He has bruised her face and bloodied her lip and blames her for not picking up the phone and speaking to him. Sorrowful, she falls into an magnificent wordlessness that suits Tae-suk’s observant lifestyle of stepping into other people’s lives. After the husband has slapped his wife, Tae-suk launches golf balls into the squealing husband. When Sun-hwa flees with Tae-suk on his motorcyle, they enter a series of other people’s homes, relaxing on a red sofa looking out on an interior garden, being in the home of a boxer and finally finding the body of an elderly person that they well-organized, wrap and bury according to custom. Not each of Tae-suk’s attempts wind up benign, however, as he injures a person in a car with a golf ball and perhaps results in the shooting of a young mother. Ju Jin-mo plays the despicable detective who eventually charges Tae-suk and releases Sun-hwa to the prison of her husband. Tae-suk immediately applies his observation of limited detail to his jail cell, memorizing the floor, exploring the walls and completely making himself at home. Lee Ju-suk is the abusive jailer who repeatedly investigates an apparently empty cell as Tae-suk mirrors each movement and stays directly leisurely the jailer. It is breathtaking cinema for the incorporation of martial arts-like movement and dance in to the simplest of surroundings. The film concludes with Tae-suk’s rush and revisiting of houses into which he had previously broken. It climaxes with him reuniting with Sun-hwa, kissing her as she hugs her husband. “3-Iron” is a fabulous delight, quite different from the heavy-handed car-crash Hollywood-style blockbuster, pixie-like in its sweetness and simplicity. It explores the sometimes microscopic distance between life and dream. Bravo!
