Featured review
Isabelle Huppert is an incredible actor
The Korean film Da-reun na-ra-e-seo (2012) was shown in the U. S. with the title In Another Country. It was was written and directed by
Hong Sang-soo.
Isabelle Huppert portrays three different women, all of whom are named Anne. The movie (well, movies) are set in a small seaside resort.
The first Anne is a famous French filmmaker visiting an equally famous Korean filmmaker and his pregnant wife. The problem is that the husband is attracted to Huppert.
The second Anne is the wife of a wealthy industrialist. She is here to meet her lover, who is a filmmaker.
The third Anne is a newly-divorced woman who comes to the resort with an older woman friend.
The segments sometimes move in the the same direction. For example, she sets out with a young woman to go shopping, but the next scene always is Anne alone on a barren road.
Anne is always looking for a lighthouse, which is a tourist attraction. Joon-Sang Yoo is a very muscular lifeguard that appears in all the segments. He should know the location of the lighthouse, but he doesn't.
Huppert was born to play these roles. She is one of the great actors of our generation and she is believable as all three women. It's worth watching the movie just to see her act.
Unfortunately, I'm in the minority about this film, because it has an anemic IMDb rating of 6.4. I don't like to recommend movies that have a low IMDb rating, but I definitely will make an exception in this case. I thought it was a wonderful movie, and rated it 9.
