Confessions (Kokuhaku) (2010)

This film is a great example to give people when you need to emphasise to someone what you mean by Art house or indie world cinema. Its got a grand buffet of tastes for you to feast upon. If you are a big fan of the "Vengeance series" by Park Chan Wook then prepare to enjoy an instalment you never expected to get, however with a kind of visual beauty that you'd expect only from an experimental artist who decided to have a shot at using the camera.

What im trying to say is that aside from the general Vengeance tale being told there are near still life scenes in this film that stick in your head, stills that need to be taken in for there beauty and not just speeded along like any other film might do. Admittedly the fact that theres use of slowing effects on these scenes to the point where they near become still shots may seem a tad overboard at times and make you realise that Zach Snyder films may have sentenced us all to a slow bullet-time doom with future films, but on a high note it also, for me clashes great art film perspectives like Steve McQeens(artist) "Hunger" along with the poetic justice of ChanWooks "Vengeance series".
