The President's Last Bang

The 1979 assassination of South Korean President Park Chung-hee is dramatized with this darkly stylish satire reminiscent of "Dr. Strangelove." While the gluttonously decadent president (Jae-ho Song) indulges himself at a banquet accompanied by his inner circle and two loose young women, his disgruntled CIA chief (Yun-shik Baek) decides that an impromptu regime change might just be in order. Suk-kyu Han, Won-jung Jeong also star. 104 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: Japanese; Subtitles: English; interview; photo gallery; theatrical trailer. In Japanese with English subtitles.
