For this Sunday Kino Night, first up is The Chaser (2008), a Korean crime thriller about a corrupt cop who has become a pimp and finds his prositutes sddenly disappearing without a trace, only to realize tht they had all seen the same client beforehand. Cue a cat-and-mouse game between the two shitty guys as each attempts to take down the other. Director is Na Hong-jin, whose horror film The Wailing (2016) we previously watched; this is debut, and one of the highest-rated Korean films on Letterboxd. Let’s check it out.

Next is Breaker Morant (1980), an Australian drama set during the Boer War (1899-1902) and concerning a cout-martial of three Australian soldiers for executing prisoners. The trouble is that their British commanding officers ordered them to do so, and are now pinning the blame on their underlings to save the reputation of the general staff. God Damn the UKKK:The Movie. Director is Bruce Beresford, who is better known for, uhh, Driving Miss Daisy (1989); this is by a pretty wide margin his most critically-acclaimed film.

We’ll start at 8PM EST on Hextube, right here:
