Memories of Murder (2003) - Ensemble Staging
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 дек 2015
- How do you emphasize to the audience that something is important? Well, you could always cut to a close-up, but how about something subtler? Today I consider ensemble staging - a style of filmmaking that directs the audience exactly where to look, without ever seeming to do so at all. NO SPOILERS.
Eight Ways to Get the Audience to Look at a Character:
1) Let Them Speak
2) Make Them Brighter or Bring Them Closer
3) Let Them Move (Especially Hands or Eyes)
4) Put Them in the Center of Frame
5) Turn Them Towards the Lens
6) Separate Them from the Group
7) Isolate Them by Moving the Camera
8) Have Other People Look at Them

The Director of this movie just won the Palme d’Or at Cannes for his latest movie Parasite.
I watched the movie and 'brilliant' doesn't do it justice
and i believe the main detective from Memories also stars in Parasite
Boon Joong ho does not get enough love
Parasite was amazing. This director is the real deal.
Brilliant movie..probably that best of 2019.
Just some trivia I thought you might enjoy, Tony!
Regarding your favorite shot in Memories of Murder, Bong Joon Ho and the actors said it was one of the most strenuous scenes that took more than twenty takes. Accordingly, Detective Seo had to eat more than twenty bananas and got fed up with that chunk of potassium.
Director Bong was worried about the beer bottle Detective Seo put in the middle of the table because it covered the chief. Luckily when Detective Park shook up the table, the bottle got knocked out---resulting in a clean shot of the chief.
It's fun to think about this accident's theatricality. Earlier on in the scene, the accidental placement of the bottle makes the audience almost assume this scene will only be about the two detectives because the chief is blocked out. But later on when the bottle is removed from the frame, it helps the chief gain the stronghold of the audience's attention.
I got the trivia from the audio commentary. Anyways, It's always a great joy to watch your videos. Thank you!
+bleh Whoa, is this the Korean DVD/Blu-ray? I've never actually watched those copies (no region-free Blu-Ray player) or listened to the audio commentary (which I imagine is in Korean). This trivia is fantastic, thank you!
+bleh I own the same Blu-ray. Unluckily I don't know Korean.
+bleh The poor chief... all of those 20 takes holding fake vomit in his mouth, face down not being able to move...
+Every Frame a Painting Really, you don't own a region free Blu-ray? I would think it would be a worthy investment especially with your library of films. Speaking of which, +Jan Pal could you tell me where you got that Blu-ray from, since I'm struggling to find anywhere that sells it.
+SHOPPINGTROLLY REBEL I think the Playstation 4 has a region-free blu-ray player built into it. It would make a good option, actually. I've found console built-in players to be more reliable than a lot of dedicated players I've used! Hell, even the (much cheaper) Playstation 3 has a pretty decent blu-ray player.
As for the movie itself, I've never heard of it before this video. What is it, exactly? A comedy murder mystery? It looks interesting.
This great director finally won the Oscar.
Who?
Korean cinema of the 2000's was probably the best in the world for that time period.
Memories of Murder definitely is one of the artistically richest movies ever made.
year 2003 specifically :-)
korean cinema is still the best in the world..
LOL the ending of that scene when they both get smacked. love that movie.
Couldn't agree more. MOM is something else. Bong Joon Ho is insanely genius.
agree!! 3000%
I absolutely love Korean films. They are often so visceral, so gritty and full of real human emotion. Sadly, whenever it seems a Korean director tries to make it in Hollywood, the westernization of the films really hinders them. Still, Korean films are fantastic - start with Oldboy and just work your way in from there.
+Aaron Estes I'm with you man, especially when it comes to thriller/murder movie. It feels so gritty and often can be brutal, but the brutality is not just like being thrown out there to become a gore-fest, it often full with emotion and that's what makes it great.
Yeah, I also start with Oldboy, and then just branching out, especially with Choi Min-Sik movies. He's very great in Oldboy and keeps doing a terrific job in other movies. Kinda upset when I see him in "Lucy" though, because it feels like he's being underused in that movie and he didn't shine as much like in his other movies. I know he's not a main character, but still...
Aaron Estes Have you watched the new film by the same director of oldboy its called handmaiden
Oldboy is amazing, and Park Chan-Wook is one of my top 3 directors (and I hesitate to call favorites) but Sympathy For Lady Vengeance has remained my #1 film ever since I first watched it. That, in my opinion, is his shining achievement. Directors like these are why I watch films!
I still haven't seen enough, but it does seem to me that in terms of live action movies, Korea as a country is really doing well. There will always be talented artists of all nationalities, but there are also always centers where many great artists come from, and I think South Korea is one of those places.
Even for "bad" Korean movies, the standard is so much higher than western shit in general
Koreans caught 'The Real One'. The murderer was in prison already, for the another murder. Now we have the true ending for the movie
It came as a surprise and I didn't expect it would ever get solved. Such a happy ending
Holy shit!
Sanish Sarasan they catch the golden state killer in 2018 with DNA also. I think those serial killers will eventually be captured in the few upcoming years
@@Ronin-bt1fj it still not solve 100. Which is only person has been caught. There are several cases. And there is copycat.
Go watch Tunnel 2017, korean drama. To get more vision on it.
A few years ago another notorious Korean serial killer gave his opinion on the culprit of this case. He said either he's dead or serving time in prison already because serial killers just can't stop killing. Turned out he was spot on.
So who's here after Parasite's big win?
Thanks this amazing channel
I watched this movie in 2003. I think this movie is the top legend of Korean films.
Tony joined the Bonghive before it was cool.
Was here long before Parasite 😎
@@kjk4400 Memories just wasn't a good movie lol
Memories of Murder, one of my all time favourite movies.
it's amazing how many Korean movies are on that list as well.
I'm not a filmmaker and I have no interest in making films. Yet I find these breakdowns of scenes and movies interesting. You put this technical side of moviemaking in a very compelling way. Kudos Tony!
I guess my question is where can we see some your work? I don't mean reviews of things other people do but original content where you apply all this knowledge?
+Grman Rodriguez my sentiments exactly.
he likes to do the theoretical part. as far as i know he has not anything to do with filmmaking. he studied literature. thats why i like his point of view on movies. ive never seen somebody analysing movies as he does
Just because someone can accurately recognise and do a good job of explaining how something is made doesn't mean they can make something great themselves. Being a good critic does not mean you'll be a good film maker.
+Krombopulos Michael exactly
+Krombopulos Michael Well my friend that's why this channel is more interesting. Because Tony shows us beauty of cinema and since i watch his videos i truly can understand and enjoy framework
Memories of Murder is the best movie of past decade
best OST, best edited film, best cast, best screenplay, best ending scene
Fabio Bertolino I wouldn't say best, but it's at least top 5 for me
The ending scene is impressive.
How can you not say best cinematography? Btw, the movie is best in all aspects.
Ending Agreed
if you're a Korean or well aware of Korea's modern history, you can also savor underlying allegories of the movie :-)
There is no series online that has this level of quality (regardless of simplicity). Thank you
+Arun Regi Alex It is, but somehow it is still different. When I'm listening to Tony, it's not only interesting, but calming and relaxing. A bit like a trance I guess. I have never experienced such a thing on RUclips before...
Arun Regi Alex Of course it is, I never intended to say something else. But your comment provides further proof for the difference between the two of them, whatever it may be.
+The_Scarf_Ace How is it simplistic? I think he goes into a lot of depth.
Adam Cox Simple doesn't mean easy; he probably meant something like minimalistic...
I think he meant concise. It takes a lot of refining. 'I didn't have time to write a short letter, so I wrote a long one instead.'
Here again after Parasite's Oscar! Wherever you are Tony, you been missed
Im here after Parasite, and have just watched the Memories of murder, amazing movie. Im amazed to watch the Korean wave in the past 15 years. It reminds me of the new waves from 60s, that it brings high quality movies to the audience. Thank you Tony, I wish you were still doing some of these essays.
where can you see it. It can't find it on any streaming service (in Canada anyway)
I don't think I enjoy any other channel more than I do yours Tony! Great work dude.
You don't have any content
Yes!!!! This kind of directing is something I love as well. From a practical standpoint - when you let actors work together in a scene, you can get a lot more out of them. A lot of actors train from the theater perspective so they want to work with each other not have their performances mercilessly cut up in the edit room.
The coverage style ping-pong shot-reverse-shot also just feels so confining. When you open it up with a rich master shot you can do all kinds of things with blocking and mise-en-scene - shifting around eyelines - moving and crossing paths - and then when you do cut in for a close up - it MEANS something! The dangerous part about it is you do need to get the scene right on set - you can't just create the performance in the edit - but that's also what makes those scenes work so much better.
Fun fact about that "Sweet Smell of Success" scene - Tony Curtis was suppose to sit at the table with Burt Lancaster but Lancaster being a dedicated method man, was irritated that day and was throwing fits about letting Curtis sit at his table when (the character) wasn't invited. Even though that wasn't played out in a master - playing it out in at least a 2-shot gave us this great uncomfortable feeling that came about because actors were allowed to do their thing. :)
I never noticed that Bong used ensemble staging so much, and that he had actors unobtrusively blend in and out of the background to focus on the main actors, all in one fluid shot! And having the chief pop out in the center to symbolize being the moral center is genius. I will pay attention to this from now on!
I've always loved ensemble staging much more interesting and I always try and picture it whenever I'm writing scenes. I'm a huge fan of the long take also.
+DeathBlackWish I agree, the long take is definitely alot harder to master with all kinds of moving parts, but when that scenes comes together in one shot, my go its an incredible feeling, especially as a cinematographer.
46kvcs I wish both of these techniques were used more often. But also I kinda don't because then they'd lose their specialty I think. But nearly all my favorite movies and directors have used one or the other at least once. I always try and find a scene that I write that will work with those techniques. I can just see them in my mind and I hope someday I'll be able to turn my visions into reality.
+DeathBlackWish The thing is, Steven Spielberg does the one shot the way I think it should be done: practically invisible and is rarely noticed by the average movie watcher.
+DeathBlackWish Agreed brotha I love telling stories that aren't lazily shot. I love when the cinematography brings the audience into the film, makes the camera a character. It's incredible, and that's what I try to do with each project I work on
That's a great practice. I sometimes try to split scenes down to meds and close ups (very rarely), but whenever I write a conversation between three or more people, ensemble is how my mind registers it. Its weirdly easy to do that.
RIP Jeon Mi-seon. This is my favorite Korean film and she was great in it.
Katie Hough damn. I just re-watched it in the weekend. R.I.P
This movie left me with a profound sadness about the futility of our efforts, even with the best of intentions. I came to Memories after The Host, and these two movies just floored me with a crazy mash-up of several different genres, always keeping me guessing. This is real life-- comedy, drama, horror, politics, all in the same day, every day.
This movie is perfection. The plot, ensemble, directing, music, writing...everything! That last frame is perfection in directing in my opinion. Great analysis!
After yesterday I had to come back here and watch this video again. People like you were taking notice of his work way before Hollywood and although I have nothing to do with the Korean film industry, I thank you as a movie fan. God I hope he gets to see this video
2:15 this was my favourite shot in the film
"Every Video A Masterful Lesson"
This masterpiece should be in the curriculum / syllabus of every film school.
One of the greatest film I've ever seen.
I re-watched this last night, probably the third time i've seen it now. It just gets better with each viewing, knowing the story behind the very final scene as he stares directly into the camera is chilling - the director said he knew that the killer will probably watch the movie one day. So he's not so much looking at the audience as he is directly at the killer. I also noticed the score for the first time, i dunno how i missed it the first 2 times but the music is utterly brilliant, the composer is Taro Iwashiro if you're looking for it. The movies is a masterpiece overall - i'm sad that this channel no longer exists.
I think literally it is a memories of murder. Why did the detective remind me of my past memories and why not a magazine? Who is the culprit? I think I can tell you everything in one scene, such as why this happened. (Anger, sadness, memories, A fault)
I just saw this film tonight. I think that the scene when the man sticks up his head in the field is going to be with me for a long time for all its creepiness!
People are sick
My favourite movie. It lingers with you for some time after watching it. The fact that it's based on real events in South Korea makes the movie even more intriguing.
So awesome and informative !!! Love breakdowns of filming.
And that's why I love your channel. You know Hollywood and Asia. Most Americans don't even think about comparing these two, because they don't watch Asian movies. I do. And you do, too. You're also making very good points. Glad you posted another one. Happy new year!
+Popcorn might have to do with him being asian (chinese? judging by his surname), but nonetheless, great comparison indeed :)
+waldomarek A lot of student filmmakers do watch a lot of asian cinema, though. At least where I'm studying. Depends, I guess. But there are some gems in both markets, nonetheless.
***** Cool Beans, man!
To be fair this movie is pretty famous even in the west
+Popcorn Sometimes most Americans watch hollywood remake of asian movies, and they don't know the original movies, like for exemple the
Infernal Affairs who became The Departed
Samuel L. Jackson knows his business. I wonder what he was thinking when he had to put up with George Lucas' "directing" in the Star Wars prequels.
+Slim Charles Honestly I'd say it's more Lucas' writing than directing that's the problem. I mean, yes the prequels are comparatively worse (though I personally rate "Revenge" and "Return" at about the same level -- V>IV>VI/III>I>II) but Lucas also directed the original. While not exactly a cinematic masterpiece itself, largely due to cliche and IMO overly done homage to Kurisawa (not that he's a bad director to draw inspiration from, or that the kendo/samurai influence on Jedi/lightsabers isn't now legendary beyond the scope of the series), the original film is still well contained and a *good* enjoyable experience.
"Empire" benefits greatly from the larger budget and Kirshner directing following the *unexpected* success of IV, which was made more independent because even Lucas didn't expect much of a reception (telling as well, IMO, that Lucas made a better movie when he expected it to "fail" than those he made twenty years later well into Star Wars fan-dom).
Much of the imagery and even camera work in the prequels is quite good, it's just not shooting much acting worth having on camera. Naboo and Utapau are stunning and very different from the more realized Courascant and barren Tatooine (made more striking in contrast to the others), for instance, much of the space battle in "Revenge" is great *and* that film as a whole subtly nods a lot to the beats of "Empire," the best of the six at least cinematically. Even the political stuff in the prequels I feel was *okay* (as opposed to entirely bad as many people place it), and could have been quite good, but was written from a naive perspective on politics and progressed VERY slowly in the trilogy, considering only three films as opposed to even a single television season (referring to pacing of the sequences, rather than the stories' ~ 10 year timeline across the three films).
I do have to agree many directors would likely have been able to do a better job from a purely cinematographic point, and perhaps improve the final story/progression somewhat by removing Lucas one step from the end product--which is to say, even Disney consult Lucas and his earlier works and ideas for their ongoing television and film series, he IS the creator after all, but he's not central to the whole cycle anymore. And Sam Jackson has been brilliant in everything I've seen him do, from "Do the Right Thing" to what little he *was* able to do as Master Windu.
And finally, sorry for the short essay. This started much more concise in my head I swear. Like Tony I too quite enjoy and read a lot into film and film making, and I'm a huge Star Wars fan. Gets out of hand sometimes.
+Slim Charles Star Wars = Bad Directing. But the new one is better.
+Frantachy thanks for this. There are too many people jumping on the "prequel hatetrain" than those that think for themselfs.
+Samuel Flores They are still pretty bad. Personally, I enjoyed them because I couldnt take them seriously.
Nigga wanted a purple lightsaber, that was his thinking ha
5 years ago I started to watch Korean movies and fell in love instantly! MOM was the second one I watched and till now is my favorite and the best for me! Everyone was asking me why I watch Korean movies, now after parasite nobody does...
Once again an excellent video. Seing Every Frame a Painting uploaded a new video got me more excited than christmas did. I love Tony's work.
His channel helped me a lot at getting into the art of filmmaking and appreciating it and since that's what he describes as his main goal, I'd say: Mission fulfilled. Many thanks for all these great movie experiences I've gained and will gain because of this channel!
of all the film-analyst on RUclips, Tony is the greatest. His videos makes perfect sense and I agree with everyone of them. I like how direct he is in his videos and doesn't get lost in academic perspectives.
This specific video puts so simply into terms why I love art in general. There is so much to think about in so many pieces as to why they are there. What catches the eye, where the artist intends you to look, or what the focus of the piece is. The channel name calls back to this too so perfectly, this movie is showing you why paintings are so entrancing without you thinking about it. The gaze of the characters, the leading lines drawing your eye, it applies to so much more than film and can grant you appreciation for other forms of art when you recognize these techniques.
I love these videos. I'm not a visual storyteller but the breakdown and analysis of how stories are told and how each moment matters is amazing. You're a talented man, Tony. Keep up the hard work
FINALLY HE IS CAUGHT!!!!
Where are you Tony, now that we need you? We are dying to see a video of yours about Parasite :(

@Minjun Kim medium.com/@tonyszhou/postmortem-1b338537fabc will explain it
Really appreciate each and every one of these. This kind of ensemble staging is a lost art. Great to see the respect it's given here.
The Director of this movie just won the Academy Award for Best Picture for his latest movie Parasite.
One of my personal favorite films of all time and still Bong Joon-Ho's strongest in an incredible catalogue. I'm so glad you could show the profile shot in the interrogation scene, stunning.
**SPOILERS**
One scene I'm sure you avoided for spoiler reasons, or that didn't really mesh with the topic was the train tunnel scene in the climax. Two sensational shots one after another with the supposed culprit fleeing into the darkness of the tunnel, once again putting a shadow over the investigation, and a follow up shot of the two detectives in silhouette outside of the tunnel, exposed, vulnerable, worn down. It always gets me.
Very nice work!
Fascinating as always. Thanks Tony!
Tony admired and made a video of Bong Joon Ho before it was cool.
This channel's first video was "Mother" from Bong Joon Ho also. After he won the best director I came back here just to find out how much I missed Tony's film essays.
Excellent video again, Memories of Murder is such an under-rated film. I think it might be my favourite Korean film, and that is saying something given how many great Korean films there are.
Lewis C it's my favorite non english film
Well actually in Korea, its nothing less than a legend. So its quite respected as it is.
Not underrated but more of a unknown. Everyone who's seen it, Koreans or foreigners, love it.
Memories of Murder is such a fantastic film! Scratch that, 10/10 cinema!
Congrats Director Bong
There's not a lot of channels that I watch entirely. But on yours I watched. Every. Single. Video. Your stuff is amazing! And educational! Thank you!
On point. I love the way you present. It's so calm and satisfying. It always works!
I was wishing for a new video just this morning! great work as always :)
Another fantastic video :)
Hey Tony I actually really like your videos and how educational and informative it is. Keep uploading really enjoying it
I can't say how much I appreciate these videos. I always learn something new from every frame a painting.
They found the murderer at last! It is Today's news
@Isaac Neri Rodriguez
It's only been 3 years after Korean Police completed building culprits DNA database.
So the owner of DNA was in the jail since that serial murder was stopped. The murderer was arrested for a different case.
Pretty horrifying huh?
Seriously???

This is a ducomentary film of the facts that are recently revealed. the language is korean though..but at least you can see the face of the culprit
@@sara2923ify the link is broken. :(. any mirrors or alternative or at least the name of the doc?
Tony, I absolutely love it when you take your time, focus on a specific shot or moment -- breaking down the relevant details and explaining what it means to filmmaking as a whole. Your broader, more comprehensive videos are also great (like Chuck Jones, Evolution of an Artist), but videos like this one, Who Owns the Scene, and The Lateral Tracking Shot are what make you one of THE best sources for understanding film form.
I've recently started to transcribe your videos and other youtuber's content to help me retain the information. It's SO precious and valuable, I'm learning more from you than I did at film school. Thank you a thousand times!
This is consistently some of my favorite content on youtube. Thank you Tony!
There's a brilliant ensemble shot early on in There Will Be Blood. It's the scene in which Paul Sunday tells Daniel Plainview about the oil in Little Boston. The entire scene plays out in a master. You always know to whom you're supposed to pay attention because of the dialogue, the body language, and the blocking. He was already a great filmmaker before, but on that film, Paul Thomas Anderson became a master.
Great video as always.
+TulseLuper This shot is the subject of David Bordwell's essay "Hands and feet across the table," which I linked to in the video description, and which was a pretty big influence on the direction of this video. It's a great shot.
Every Frame a Painting Yes, that is an excellent essay. Cheers!
+TulseLuper I went straight to There Will Be Blood after this video cause a bunch of scenes popped into mind about ensemble shots. That was an excellent example of this. The first scene he's talking to people about drilling too - really cool.

Hi Tony. Finally Bong’s awarded!! Strangely, you came up with the first thing. I want to see you again as a Big fan.
I'm childishly happy every time you post a new video. thanks Tony
Every video on of this channel is gold! Love it!
You can see ALL these details in Parasite. Surely, Bong Joon-Ho has a unique aestethic, I believe remembers me Kubrick. But in a very own way. Congrats, Bong! And to the channel, too!
Dude I was watching this movie alone and the scene at 1:54 terrified me.
Pretty much every scene with the women walking alone scared the shit out of mr
I started acting on stage about 2 years ago and have been learning a lot. These breakdowns really help understand how to bring a scene alive and understand what is happening. Glad you're still doing these. Thanks
Ahhhhhh Tony is back. Always worth the wait!
Another terrific overview, and now I have a new movie (to me) to check out.
+xingcat It's a great film. Closest "feel" that I can compare it to is like David Fincher's
+xingcat It´s great movie, one of those which linger with you for a long time.
Same!
+xingcat this film is so good!
+Andrew Rizzo Actually, this film is superior to David Fincher's Zodiac.
Soy español y me encanta tu canal, gracias por substitularlo!
I watched Memories of Murder after watching this and loved every frame from start to finish. Thanks for pointing me to it and, as usual, great insights. Keep up the solid work!
I eagerly await each ep. Great channel man!
I wish you had more videos. I keep rewatching many of them just because I like them too much.
Fascinating! One day I will use those techniques in my own film. Thank you Tony for making this remarkable videos
I absolutely feel enlightened and exhilarated watching these. I throughly appreciate it. Thank you!
Out of all the film essayists I watch on RUclips, you are by far my favorite one. Keep up the good work!
I honestly learn so much about filmmaking from this channel!
I fucking love this series
And ELEVEN people don't.
Excellent video, Tony. Your love for film is infectious.
My favorite channel in utube. Every episode is a masterpiece!
Bong Joon Ho is a master of cinema... and I’m not talking about how many good movies he made or how famous he is, he literally mastered the craft of storytelling, it’s basically breathing to him
Masterpiece
Your videos keep getting better and better, thankyou
Your channel along with Darren must watch films and a couple others are completely changing my view of art of cinema, thank you so much, it is a pleasure and honor to have such insightful videos on youtube and watch them for free. From the heart, thank you!
I realized this two weeks ago but this was sooo helpful
Shameless self promotion
Memories of Murder was my first korean movie and the true movie to set me down the path of discovering Asian cinema ... I always knew there was a special magic underlying in this movie ,, and I see it was in the Cinematography .. Thank you for this video
I love the attention to detail that you put into every video. Great episode!!
Always an utmost pleasure and priviledge watching your videos Tony.
Wow! your explanation is very accurate and informative. Just subscribed.
This channel has taught more about filmmaking than film school
Absolutely superb insights. I think this is the first analytical series that's actually taught me something. Thank you!
your work is so good, i am constantly recommending it to my teachers and lecturers who then use it to show their other classes. Keep it up.
Man, Tony really likes Bong Joon-Ho ;). Funnily I watched "Memories of murder" because of this channel - the vid about "Mother" interested me - and now there's a video about it. And including the badass that is Samuel L. Jackson makes this even more awesome. There also is a vid called "Memories of a Zodiac Killer" comparing this one with Fincher's film if anyone is interested.
Parasite won the Oscar. Come back with a video PLEASE!
These videos are the highlight of my day. So compelling, well thought and fun.
I think your videos are brilliant, it's fascinating to see in which ways movies are made these days and how directing and editing makes such a big difference to how the movie is conveyed to the viewer. Keep going this stuff is great.
i miss you tony
wherever you are, i hope you are happy with bong joon-ho's COMPLETE VICTORY at the oscars
Hey Tony, if you were a professor I feel like I could learn soooo much from you! Great video as always
Every time you post a video I value movies more and more as an art form. Seriously your work on these videos makes me treasure these movies in a new way and makes me so happy. It's like seeing a different part of a diamond and treasuring the beauty of it.
I think I end up favouriting every one of your videos. Seriously though, thanks for continuing to expand my mind on new ways to appreciate film, these are always so wonderful.
BONG JOON HO ACADEMY AWARD WINNER !!
Who is here after he won an Golden Globe for Parasite?
I'm here after sag awards
Here again, after the Oscars :)
Literally just all of your videos back to back. This shit is gold!
Your videos have given me some great applicable knowledge for my video-editing classes that I sometimes don't get from my tutors. Thanks, Tony.
