In Park Chan-wook’s NO OTHER CHOICE, a laid-off man concocts a dark plan to eliminate his competition in this genius Korean thriller & elegiac – and darkly funny – indictment of late-stage capitalism. The film, an adaptation of a 1997 crime novel by Donald E. Westlake, stars Lee Byung-hun as a middle manager at a South Korean paper company that’s just been bought out by Americans. Humiliated and desperate, he feels he has “no other choice” but to resort to murder to literally take out his fellow job-seekers. By melding parody and tragedy, Chan-wook evokes a startling comic pathos that The New York Times says “can make you gasp in empathy amid the horror.” And whether we’re frogs slowly boiling in AI’s indifferent brew or longsuffering peons about to experience freedoms thanks to it, this is the perfect film for our times. NO OTHER CHOICE was just nominated for three Golden Globes, including Best Picture, and two Critics Choice Awards, including Best Adapted Screenplay. It’s also on the Oscars shortlist for Best International Feature.
