Oasis
Oasis is a Korean film made in 2004 by director Chang-dong Lee. It is an unconventional love story set in modern day Korea. I can truly say this movie contains some of the best acting I have ever seen. Kyung-gu Sol, who plays Hong-Jong Du as the main character, and Moon So-ri, who plays his love interest, are two of the most convincing and captivating characters ever to grace the big screen. This wonderful film is definitely worth watching for the performances alone. However, if that isn't enough to convince you to commit an evening to this film, the storyline should be. Can a social misfit, and a handicapped young woman create a lasting relationship in this world? Will the people around them allow them to explore, experience, and cultivate their relationship even if they don't approve of or understand it? This movie explores these poignant issues regarding love and life. The official FFG rating of this movie is a 10.
