SUMMARY:SAM Films: Korean Cinema's Got Style - Killing Romance
DESCRIPTION:Have you heard? Korean Cinema’s Got Style!\nExpand your Korean art horizons
  with four contemporary films that epitomize the charm\, style\, and innova
 tion of Meot: Korean Art from the Frank Bayley Collection. This two-week fa
 ll series of evening and matinee screenings will genre-hop through horror\,
  comedy\, mystery\, and even the Western\, proving Korean cinema is anythin
 g but predictable. Showcasing a few modern masters’ early works\, this seri
 es engages with Meot’s contemplations on Korean artistry through time. Join
  us for community activities accompanying each screening. \nTickets: $15\nL
 ee Won-suk's Killing Romance \nA has-been actress marries a charismatic bil
 lionaire while on a tropical vacation. Unsurprisingly\, he turns out to be 
 a psychopathic narcissist\, and she plans her escape with the help of one o
 f her diehard super-fans.\nNothing can prepare you for the fanfare of death
  saunas\, telepathic ostriches\, mustachioed panache\, and musical numbers 
 that follow in this diabolical comedy from rising director Lee Won-suk. Sta
 rs Lee Ha-nee and the late Lee Sun-kyun\, of Parasite fame\, turn in truly 
 inspired\, over-the-top performances that make any audience fall in love (a
 nd hate). A rising cult phenomenon in Korea and fan favorite at this year’s
  Seattle International Film Festival\, Killing Romance proves that when it 
 comes to mixing genres\, there’s no such thing as too much.\nGet in the moo
 d for love with our movie dating game before the screening!\n1:30 pm: Doors
  open for seating\n2 pm: Special program and showtime!\nKorean Cinema’s Got
  Style! is guest curated by Hannah Baek.
