The news is trickling out that much of Cho Seung-Hui's imagery for his weirdo multimedia presentation of himself (vlog champion Chuck Olsen notes:
don't call it a video blog)
was borrowed form the film
Old Boy. I actually own this film on DVD and wonder if it's now suddenly eBay-worthy. [Update:
Karina has a good post about this.]
I wouldn't sell Oldboy, such a great film!!
what is the correlation between the killers video and oldboy? The fact that they are both asian and pointing a gun to their heads? Wow - that nails it. Great journalism.
OK, it's on my Netflix.
I wouldn't sell my copy either. I think my wife and I actually saw an advert for OldBoy while we were at one of the City Pages Documentary Festivals and that was what got us to watch it.
