NO OTHER CHOICE - Official Trailer - In Select Theaters Christmas
“A victim of downsizing at the paper mill where he has worked for many years, middle manager Man-Soo (Lee Byung-hun) finds himself cast adrift in an unforgiving job market; with bills piling up and his house in danger of foreclosure, he is forced into a drastic course of action when a choice role becomes available at a rival paper mill. Aware that newly unemployed erstwhile contemporaries will also be competing for the job, Man-Soo must do whatever it takes to increase his chances of securing the role, though it soon becomes apparent that he is ill-suited to the grim task at hand. The latest from Park (The Handmaiden, Oldboy) sees the director apply his signature visual dynamism and droll humour to an adaptation of Donald Westlake’s acclaimed 1997 Novel, The Ax.” A little bit of extra to watch if you wish: Director Park Chan-wook - Satirizing Capitalism in “No Other Choice” | The Daily Show
