"Untold Scandal"
2003
Directed by Lee Je-Yong

The 18th century French novel Les Liaisons Dangereuses has provided material for a number of skilled filmmakers, but this adaptation by Korean auteur Lee Je-Yong is arguably the most boldly reimagined version yet. Set in Korea at the end of the Chosun Dynasty, the film stars Bae Yong-Jun as a handsome young aristocrat who becomes obsessed with a graceful and aloof beauty. His mission is deterred by his spiteful cousin, who coerces him into deflowering an innocent young woman before she can become her husband's concubine. "Director Lee Je-Yong gives the book a makeover full of wit and startling beauty" (LA Weekly). Japanese with English subtitles.  124 minutes.
