I watched this moview 2 years a go, skiping a lot, and I hated it but I forgot about what happned so I watched it again , maybe it was not with subtitles. and now I watched it all again with sub.

It is a simple sad story about a family , mothers, and homosexuality, one guy doesn't have a mom, the other one have
For me I feel the overall story is not new, the conflict of someone that doesn't have a family and enter a relationship from the son because of the caring loveing mom care
on top of that the same trop about the mother not approving her son being gay.
and it's slow and drag trying to be artistic,

To my point of view the producer is very influence by Kim ki Duk and trying hard to be him, but it's not working, Kim ki Duk is a genius and he tell a story wonderful and slow without too much of a dialog, you understand in a way his massage,

but here you understand but stay confuse all the way and there are a lot of moments you can skip, the color pallet is the same ,and the anviorment is very cold, it feels lonely we got it already, but life have some colorful moments too , the director is probably very depressed he doesn't see anything but the dark and gloomy moments

even when the guy that became a vagtable wake up it's depressing.

Overall I think that there is not so much of this movie, the producer or the script was trying hard to tell you that everything is gloomy, and you need to accept that it's life, but it's only his narrow prespective. if you go after Kim Ki duk at list you have some shiny moments, and some meaning behind things. what we got here exactly, did we get with some insight? no, you left without and 2 hours less from you life and sad
