THE HANDMAIDEN- 2016. Synopsis by Netflix. “Hired by a suave con man, young street-thief Sook-hee secures employmentI haven’t hated a movie this much since I saw The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover. Artful and well-acted but tedious and vulgar. Sorry folks. Call me a prude if you like but that’s what I think. as a handmaiden for wealthy but reclusive heiress Lady Hideko. But the pair’s plan to steal her fortune becomes complicated when Lady Hideko falls in love with Sook-hee.
10/21/16- Excellent reviews. TRDB.
11/9/16- Great reviews as noted above but I did not like this movie at all. The one reviewer who dissented said this- “I haven’t hated a movie this much since I saw The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover. Artful and well-acted but tedious and vulgar. Sorry folks. Call me a prude if you like but that’s what I think.” That’s my sentiment as well. TRDB. At the Theater.
