of all the films, going home was the only one i really found memorable. the story was unique, and the sets were wonderfully atmospheric as well as the soundtrack.
it's full of a stark kind of beauty - i didn't find it the least bit horrifying, and it was actually quite a sad tale that moves at a very slow pace that really kept me wondering how things would end.
spoiler below.
what i didn't understand is what happened to the little boy. i believed the little girl was the couple's unborn child, but why could the little boy see her, and what happened to him? what did the photographer's studio have to do with the story? it seems like the only people who saw her were the photographer who seemed to address her in the opening sequence, and the little boy.
this is the first i've seen of a Chinese 'horror' film, i look forward to seeing more in the future. any recommendations out there?
