1999: Nonton Lies Korea

Perhaps a better approach than trying to "nonton" is to the film. Reading about its impact on Korean censorship, analyzing its themes through academic papers, or seeking out reviews from critics like Jonathan Rosenbaum or Tony Rayns can provide the intellectual satisfaction without the frustrating and potentially disappointing hunt for a grainy, unsubtitled file. Lies is more important as a historical artifact of cinematic rebellion than as a Friday night watch.
