Synopsis
Do-seong (Yoo Min) is a child monk who lives at a small mountain temple with the head monk (Byeon Ki-jong), learning the teachings of Buddha. He becomes attached to a young widow (Choi Eun-hee) who comes to pray at the temple, and the childless widow entreats the head monk to let her raise Do-seong as her own son. Conflict ensues when Do-seong's real mother (Kim Seon-young) appears, but she leaves the temple for the sake of her son's future. On the day the widow is to take the child down from the mountain, the head monk discovers that Do-seong has killed a bird by ensnaringit in a trap and decides not to let the boy go into the secular world. When Do-seong finds out that his real mother has been to the temple, he sets out to find her.
Notes
"A film that has garnered recognition for its cinematography and direction by eliminating sentimentality and unaffectedly capturing the quiet life of a mountain temple. A Hometown in Heart demonstrates the camera technique and directorial skill of movies that appeared after the liberation of Korea."
A Hometown in Heart, adapted from playwright Ham Se-deok's A Little Monk (Dong-seung), was hailed upon its release as "a masterpiece that marked a new pinnacle in Korean moviemaking after the liberation." Eschewing new-school sentimentality to quietly express a boy's longing for maternal love, the film unfolds the everyday lives of three generationsthe head monk, a young monk, and a little child monkagainst the backdrop of a quiet temple in the mountains. The long shots utilized by director of cinematography Han Hyung-mo to capture the beautiful scenery of the mountain temple from a distance received great critical acclaim at the time. Also, each of the film's characters is convincingly portrayed through the skillful direction of Yoon Yong-kyu. In particular, the scene which expresses Do-seong's desperate yearning for a mother's love and his birth mother's past visit to the temple by combining them into a dream sequence reveals deep consideration for articulating story and emotion via a compressed visual grammar without tending toward sentimentalism. The movie's final scene, in which Do-seong awakens from his dream and sets off down the path in search of his mother, is both touching and beautiful. The film also features Choi Eun-hee, in the part of the young widow who warmly embraces Do-seong with her love, in one of her first roles.
Afterword:
- Lee Kang-su, writing under the pseudonym of Kwak Il-byeong, first adapted playwright Ham Se-deok's A Little Monk (Dong-seung) into a screenplay, which was then shot for the silver screen with additional embellishments by the director.
三星半。总体而言群戏还是不算出彩，几乎好的段落，是有意的凸出了个体，众人之间没有再形成一个好看的整体性的东西，当然这个整体也只是为了这个事件服务，庭审戏除了对白的来回之外，大多戏点都在藐视，这就是一种韩影式的处理方式了，反而那些游行，甚至接电话的女孩的戏被对比得更好看。这部电影对比艾伦索金之前的作品失去了一种精致机巧的美，原因是背后的这桩暴乱事件，也因为此事此事写就了全片最后的高潮戏。
作为庭审片，主要矛盾冲突不是来自检方和辩方，而且法官和辩方自身内部的冲突。开篇用了简练的手法，快速过镜每个人都是和平手段而去，以及闪过的新闻，都在表明导演给出的答案，而黑人的用处，无非是表现法官的歧视与不公，除了一次探监外，几乎没人任何法院以外的镜头。即使给出了是以政治目的审判，但并没有表现出检方任何压迫和针锋相对，而是法官的不公，一个不公正的判决，无异于污染了水源，大概导演想表达的，也就是法官是当下的美国。但是相反的，对辩方的反应以及两次闪回的镜头，却让我并没有感觉出他们没有一点的无罪。七君子，不过是两三个人的戏。
且看且珍惜，工藤新一大号又不知道多少年后才出场呢，真史上最惨男主！（另，新兰永恒。）
The whole world is watching. 极具煽动性的民主党竞选利器。但是有意思的是，隐藏在后面代表了美国民众的陪审团，最终还是判了他们有罪。我甚至怀疑这个法官是忠装反了。
是否存在一个民权运动电影的现象？《芝加哥七君子审判》是目前看到最成熟的，无论是叙事线把握整合的能力还是煽情的能力（沉默与暴力的对接是最显见的精彩剪辑），奇怪的是，要为这类电影做一个精彩的收尾莫非真是一件难事？太泄气了
熟悉的快剪辑风格，最后的庭审戏还是挺燃的。

瞧瞧人家的主旋律电影The whole worldis watching！
The whole world is watching. 知往鉴今。
哈哈哈哈哈哈哈，对不起，我不该笑是嘛，恩？这不是荒诞现实主义喜剧嘛

这部电影的台词就是一切，酣畅淋漓的俩小时；“60s outside the bar, 50s inside the bar”
与我的政府对我的蔑视相比，我的蔑视不值一提
-The world is watching! - Not really. 美国人不要再我即世界了。
相当具有煽动性 看得一身鸡皮疙瘩 Aaron Sorkin用两部电影证明他不仅是个顶尖编剧 还是个极为优秀的导演 从「Molly’s Game」的传奇人物经历进化到本片激烈的民粹选题 每一场法庭戏的调度都极具水准 神速的剪辑也能给到观影者人文关怀 实在要挑刺是强大的剧作压缩了表演空间
最后，我想看Borat大叔把小雀斑按在墙上酱酱酿酿，然后小雀斑疯狂挣扎（。）
艾伦索金编导，台词蒙太奇，对白插画面，语言暴力片。7.4
真的历史不在被记录下来的文字里，真的历史淹没在字与字之间的距离里。历史那么冰冷，静默，以至于那些以血为代价的摩擦，在清扫后也只留下法庭上对博的无力。致敬导演，思考必须严肃。
本来都担心要审美疲劳了，直到听见“Who started the riot? Our blood."这种台词，再次默默感慨，Sorkin还是好懂我的点... 后半程的模拟庭审戏剪辑非常出彩。
