"This Charming Girl" could have been titled "This Ordinary Girl". This film chronicles the very ordinary life of Jeong-hae (Kim Ji-soo), who works at a post office. We watch this character do very ordinary things, as a single woman who seems content, though there is an underlying longing in almost every action. Her back-story is slowly revealed, which sheds light on the woman we first encountered.
This is a slow, involving character, with a beautifully understated performance from the lead actress.
Recommended for viewers who are happy for a film to take its time to reveal the inner workings of its protagonist. |
