Sympathy for Lady Vengeance; Park Chan Wook

This is certainly a film and a half. Different people’s vengeance, mostly upon the same child murderer. Our heroine’s the most full bloodied but mixed with her own guilt. The other parents (of the murdered children) a strange awkward bewildered thing though they still took their turn at stabbing our two-dimensional object of revenge. It has a beautiful last scene of three figures and a white cake frozen as the snow falls and as a Vivaldi aria is sung.
