Guillermo del Toro effectively described "The decision to leave" as a "short encounter" by Jameseims M. Cain. ”For reference: Cain was a novelist responsible for Affair-Beckom-kill classics 'double compensation' And "Postman always rings twice". David Lane's "Short Meeting", Adapted by Noel Kaard's play, it is a 1945 romance film about two foreigners meeting at the train station and sharing too fast a passion. "A Short Meeting" also inspired other romantic films as "Lost in the Translation" of Sofia Coppola.

I look completely like that Toro came out with that description, but for me, I can't escape to compare the "decision to leave" with Alfred Hitchcock's "Vertigo". You have a good detective (although Hae-June has insomnia, not dizziness) to be inbes in a woman from a distance. Hae-Juni even traversed Seo-Rai while driving in his car, in the same way as Scotty (Jameses Stewart) followed Madlin (Kim Novak) around San Francisco. "The decision to leave" also uses a time jump, just as Vertigo did; The first half ends as the central romance does, and then the second half follows the couple that are associated months later. Finally, at the end of the two pictures, loversubovers are abruptly separated forever, and the detective is forever rejected.

Park also makes Hae-June and Seo-Raji in voyagers as so many Hitchcock characters in front of them. When Hae-Juni spies on the SEO-Krak through his binoculars, then he chooses her phone, he imagines himself in the room with her while talking. In the second half, he bothered SEO him From a distance while preparing to meet him again. Their romance is in the most questionable when they walk together a Buddhist temple. In this scene, the park includes a shot from a look at Hae-June, as Seo-Rae smiles at it. You must see her watching you The way she looks at Hae-June. Once you have seen that, you are just as thrilled as him.

However, while the "decision to leave" feels like a classic romance-the details of the story are modern. Many of the details of the procedural plot rely on the characters' cell phones (step-for-step application is a key notion of DOO-SO murder). Any director trying to break the code of hiring scenes with text should study those here.

In 2023 All I can ask is: What is the point of that? Not only because we have Hitchcock's "vertigo", but because we have "the decision to leave".

The "Departure Decision" is streaming on Fulu and Bad. Also available on Blu-ray.
