What if I told you dear Readers that instead of this…
We could have actually had this…?
Yeah, I know I have mentioned this before in one of my earlier Ahgassi posts but the wait for this movie has got me all hungry and I went re-watching my whole list of movies. Last night Actresses was one of the few that I got to watch and that scene between Kim Min-hee and Kim Ok-bin struck me once again with how great it was. In fact I even think that something new came to me this time around. So let’s re-visit it once again…
Because I need it to travel through time and space right to the Cannes Screening (Because it was the first and has subs, hello!). And then I would travel right back to the beginning of the film over and over and over and I wouldn’t even care what effects I would make to the stupid Universe!
Homura taught me what the words ‘do whatever it takes’ mean!
But since I don’t have a Tardis, I am reduced to sitting here and feeling all levels of jellies almost as equal to our protag’s own…
Sook-hee’s jellies could feed the whole India, for centuries!
Seriously, if you are there great One, please snap your fingers so that when I wake up tomorrow and have look at the Cineworld App I will find ‘The Handmaiden’ in the listings. Please…
While I wait for miracles, here are 500 or so pics (Sadly no time to nicely present so…sorry about that)…
A Huge ‘thank you’ to all those who created the fan art, gave us the screening pics of our girls Kim Min-hee and Kim Tae-ri and spent time to edit some of the official pics.
Of waiting for this movie has no equals! And it just occurred to me that the movie has only been out in cinemas not even a month! Hell, it’s pure hell, the days between me knowing about this movie to the day I get to hold that gift from God of a Bluray boxset of Ahgassi/The Handmaiden!
Why am I posting this? Well, it is not because of the lovely pics that are courtesy of a forum that Anon K referred to me but rather because of the below vid, which, at the 19min45s mark, the Lady got to the ‘TOOTH SCENE’. And the rest is history…
Seriously, everything I read about that scene just makes me melt and I haven’t even seen the movie! I already knew it would knock me side ways just from the trailers and clips but I thought it might have been my strange tastes! The way now all reviewers are talking about it…well…All seems true, the thought that that scene is actually more intense than the sex scenes! Hell, I already did a post where Kim Tae-ri herself says that scene was harder on her compared to the nudity and sex!
Dear Mr Park, if yo have that scene in all three POVs, and also an extended version on the Uncut Bluray and also a deleted bit of it, or maybe some behind the scenes of unused footage of it, I will worship you too every Tuesday!
So, while I try not to turn into bones as I await this movie, here are some more pics…
Okay, firstly, I wish to thank the lovely readers who have been keeping me up to date with this movie. I am really very grateful. Please do not hesitate to share if you find something. If I haven’t posted about it, chances are 0.9999998 that I have not come across it yet.
Another thing I wish to say, as I get this question a lot so i decided to add it in a post, if you are wondering what episode it is that I have blogged about, please look at the caps. I always name the images so that you can see what episode the caps are from. Simply hovering your mouse over an image, opening it in a different browser and looking at the address bar or page title will tell you the image name.
The image names have the episode numbers and/or dates.
Now with that out of the way, about the Photobook. Un-fortunately, or fortunately, the PB is just that – a Photobook for the movie. Therefore it doesn’t do Fan-service and as such, the only images in there with Kim Min-hee and Kim Tae-ri alone together are just those two you see up there.
Maybe it’s because this was Park Chan-wook’s own images? But he did say in the book before hand that it would contain images that were not specifically from the movie. Images from post production all the way back in 2013 (Yes, this movie has been in development for over three years!) and so most images are about scenery and stuff like that.
Oh well, I am not disappointed because I did not have high hopes for this. But it is connected to Ahgassi, so of course I am going to collect it.
First battle is won with this. The other two are going to be torture! Next is the OST and then in my old age (feels like I am going to wait for forever) that Blu-ray will be mine!
Kekekeke!
Anyway, jump over for a few more images I found interesting enough to scan…
