"“If you’re familiar with Bong Joon-ho, it’s probably because of his Academy Award-winning film Parasite. But he’s also got a bunch of other great films in his arsenal from as far back as the early ’90s. One of my personal favorites is Mother (2009), a heartbreaking story about a man who’s accused of a crime that his mother will do anything to prove he’s innocent of. It’s moving to see a working class widow like Kim Hye-ja fight for her son, even when it seems like there’s no way she can help him. I won’t say what happens in the end, but I can tell you that the mother in this movie shows care for her son by feeding him - usually a hearty pot of Korean seafood stew like the one you can order from Her Name Is Han right now.” -ND" - hannah albertine, nikko duren, bryan kim, hillary reinsberg, arden shore
