This one's a lot more disturbing and dark, about a mother who believes her rather slow son has been framed for a murder and the lengths she's willing to go to free him. It has an excellent script, direction, acting, and cinematography.

I also saw Bong Joon-ho's earlier BARKING DOGS DON'T BITE, which was good, but this was better.
