The characters
Baek Sang-Ah): played by Han Jimin, Baek Sang-Ah — or-Miss Fighting, as he prefers to be called, is a woman who has suffered throughout his entire life. As a child I was a victim of domestic violence at the hands of his own mother and then, years later, he was sentenced for defending themselves from abuse. The combination results in a personality that is extremely closed, and it appears that, without any warm feelings for anyone else.
Kim Jieun: Kim, Si-Oh, is living with a young child who has lived in the same neighborhood in which Miss Fighting. The girl crosses her path a few times, before I Miss Fighting you decide to help her and understand the situation in which they live. Living with father and step-mother is also abusive and relapsos, a young girl living stuck — literally — in the bathroom, and he suffers from extreme aggression on the part of the bed that houses it.
Jangsub: Lee Heejoon gave life to the detective, who is close to Sang-Ah from his youth, when he had to bow his head to the corruption of the police and the arrest of the young man, after he attacked a man to defend herself from a sexual assault. Since then, he’s trying to take care of, ” Miss Baek, whereas, even in marriage, as a way to stay close to the main character.
Kim Ilgon: Played by Baek Soojang theai to Jieun, it supports two addictions: gaming and alcohol. Both of them work just as a gimmick, so much so that he has to ignore the attacks against her daughter, as carried out by his girlfriend, and that he is to be violent with the child. Also, the result of a family, surrounded by ill-treatment, Soojang repeat the cycle of violence and Jieun.
John Mikyeong: A comparison with the stepmothers evil in fairy tales do not fit in the character is extremely cruel, as experienced by the actress, Kwon Sohyun. It is the one who have the most to torture, Jieun, emotional, and physical needs. He sees the child merely as a source of income, and less worthy of good treatment for your own dog, you receive a nice, amazing the owner, considering that it is the same as the woman locks her child in a bathroom and beaten on a daily basis.
Opinion
Focusing on the lives of two generations of women who have experienced domestic violence and its consequences, it is to be hoped that Miss Baek is not a movie that’s easy. And it does not need to be. The screenplay is based on a real event, and that a different approach would be to trivialize and condone a cruel reality that needs to be exposed.
From the outset, the film deconstructs the narrative is conventional, the female figure in the society of south korea, when you Miss Baek refuses, that would be “the perfect man” — Jangsub — stating that it was not meant to be a wife and mother. For a good part of the movie, we agree on the issue of the romantic protagonist, but torcemos to cause them to change their mind about whether to become a mother figure. That’s why, when she crosses path with Jieun, we understood promptly that the relationship between the two strange, it is the most intimate and sensitive of any relationship that you both have had.
For the name of his birth — Baek Sang-Ah — well-known, due to its history of abuse during childhood and adolescence, the main character adopts the moniker of ” Miss Baek, and later understand that it needs to adopt not only a new name, but the young, Jieun, for her story not to be repeated in the life of a small one. However, until that happens, because you’ve already spent half of the movie, and those who don’t have a lot of patience, you can get lost in the rhythm that guides you to Miss Fighting you decide to fight, and on the side of Jieun.
Every so often, you seem to be able to see the Sang-Ah, both of the female figures are central to the film. It’s like if you look at a mirror in which to reflect on the past and, at the same time, you want to help us, so have no fear of the contact with the reality that it can trigger your psychological problems. So, the long and complex process of decision-making that is completely understandable, if you can be willing to understand the dilemma of the main character. For those who have never gone through a situation of domestic violence, and child pornography, there is no doubt that the right option is to take care of a child who is facing such situation, it it without any means of support. However, for some people, who have already been through what the child is experiencing, to help it can mean reliving all the pain and suffering that is sought to be overcome.
The subject of pain, both psychological and physical, is something that is treated very realistically in the film — it definitely contributes to it will not be an easy experience. Before you hit play, you should know that you’re going to watch scenes of graphic violence committed against children. Even if you have to divert my eyes from the screen, the scene is still going on, as well as similar situations are still going on in the real world.
This is the kind of movie that makes you wake up, and it causes anger. Also, it’s a violent film about violence, but with little delicacies, especially when it comes to the relationship that develops between a young girl and a woman. The scenes which show that this loop is sensitive to between the two, and even act as a relief to the tension of the whole film carries on, and on the basis of ” Miss Baek, and Jieun to live, while they make their escape from the slopes and the action.
With 1h38 for the duration of the film, it takes a lot of time in the dilemma of whether to Miss Fighting about to help or not, Jieun, and, therefore, will end up leaving to go deeper into the stories of the characters, who seem to have all of its complexities. The delay in development refers to a density of more Fighting, but little is shown about what has happened in your teenage years, or how it came to Jansgub. The father of Jieun and his girlfriend is also a cause for curiosity, in spite of the repulsive behavior that is presented to them. He has also gone through abuse during their childhood, it makes us question just how standardized it can be in the company of south korea, or, in general, and to her, for the abuse of the child, but to be kind to your dog — which is, after all, defines a life to be more valuable than the other?
Even though the answer did not come — most likely because this question should not even be brought up in the first place, the movie brings to an end a satisfactory, not only for the audience but for the ” Miss Baek, and Jieun. Don’t define it as an end-exactly happy about it, but I think it’s definitely the closing of a cycle of violence, and that it gives you a chance to have a normal life of a child who is a very experienced, and a chance to catch up with the woman who has discovered, too late, that it is love and family.
In the film, only got to 671 in cinemas and has been seen by only a 723,1 million people, but it’s all part of the new space and the role of women in south Korean cinema, something that has expanded in 2019, with titles such as “Kim JiYoung, who was born in 1982 and”, “water”, and “Moonlit Winter”. In addition to being prominent in the paintings, behind the scenes, the female presence is also strong, and it is of the utmost importance, and with the release of Lee, Jiwon as an director at.
Despite the poor box office ($ 5.2 million), the film achieved critical acclaim, taking home awards in all nominations in the award ceremony of the Association of Critics of Cinema of the republic of Korea. The performance in the long has also won and Han Jimin win several awards in Asia, including the best actress at the Blue Dragon Film Awards.
“But the fact is that films made by women or movies with social messages, face a lot of difficulties prior to they even get shown in theaters. I really want to branch out to the film industry, where there’s a lot of movies are female – Han Jimin’s about to Miss Fighting
