“Incredibly weird — but delightful” was one audience member’s indelible comment after the UK premiere of Lee Won-suk’s insane comedy Killing Romance on Friday. Starring Lee Hanee, a former Miss Universe recently seen in the sci-fi romp Alienoid, it tells the story of Hwa Yeo-rae, a viral internet star who becomes trapped in a controlling marriage to the evil Jonathan Na (Lee Sun-kyun, who played the head of Parasite’s rich Park family). To escape from Na, Yeo-rae teams up with her new neighbor Beom-woo (Gong Myung), a young superfan who dreams up a series of increasingly bizarre murder plots.

Here’s the synopsis for Memory: “Before meeting one another at a high school reunion, recovering alcoholic Sylvia (Chastain) and widower Saul (Peter Sarsgaard) have endured more than their share of suffering. She remembers being sexually abused as a girl, and believes that Saul might be one of the older boys involved. He suffers from dementia, making it difficult to trust what he remembers, whether it happened in the distant past or just five minutes ago,” according to Variety.
After premiering the movie at the 2023 Venice Film Festival earlier this month, Peter won the Best Actor award for his role!
FYI: Jessica is wearing a custom Atelier Versace dress.
