Зеленое кресло (2005) Online

The love story among a grow up woman and an under aged guy. The movies starts from the moment she is released from jail, and follows the next steps of the love, and sex, affair. In the surrealistic ending of the movie, all the main characters are called to express their point of view on the uncommon relation of the couple. Even though not formally perfect, this movies scores a point. It gives a great representation of sex as joy and communication, without being too-sweetly romantic. Nothing is "stolen" to any one, no tragic-ending is waiting there to punish people that give themselves to passion. It gives a new, and joyful, point of view to the whole thing. Deserves to be seen...

After witnessing Cheol-su Park's few intriguing cinematic jolts, I knew this film would at least be as fascinating as his other work, even if not easily and visually digestible to a human eye.

It starts out with the release of the woman convicted of having sex with a minor. After a little heckle from the reporters the young man approaches and we see their long awaited reunion and their total carelessness toward the swarming of the press.

The remainder of the film showcases their insatiable lust for sex, Hyun's Iron Chef-like cooking abilities and Mun-hee's new duty as a social worker in a mental house for elders. They also have few struggles and debates regarding their future but instead of drilling us with heavy sentimentality they make everything work with simple humor and their natural chemistry. My only complaint is that perhaps they could have showed us how they actually hit it off, but I guess that's already obvious and would only prolong the good pacing of the film.

There are moments when you are about to rule out the believability of a certain situation, but just as you might, the director reveals it to be an imagination sequence, which really helps the film to highlight the realistic modesty of their unique relationship. The final scene in particular was a very refreshing way to a end a film which could have gone into many different directions. It's not completely conclusive and satisfying, but it's neither frustrating, forced nor depressing, which is why I ultimately enjoyed this film, because that's just how life is sometimes.

I only wish that Lifetime movies dealing with forbidden sex were this insightful and stimulating, but that would be like wishing for Hollywood to stop remaking Asian films.

The director being Park Chul-soo (301/302) and the plot being compared to the media-blitzed saga of Mary Kay Letourneau, it was hard to have any definite preconceptions about this film. Still, I didn't expect such humanity and, more importantly, the scope of the central relationship, which conveys the romantic idea that love is knowing and loving every last thing about your partner. Those expecting kinkiness and power dynamics will be disappointed, as the relationship is a model of unusual egalitarianism, and the sex scenes only confirm this. Their connection, rocky at first, becomes ever more real and intimate, even when faced with a Greek chorus of outsiders who would condemn their union. Also, a lot of hot sex scenes and a lot of tension-breaking humor. A true and real romance, highly recommended.

Green Chair is a good movie that has a good combination of drama and eroticism. The story is about a male High School and his relationship with a female divorcée.It centers on the progress of that relationship from a sexual-oriented love affair to a love relationship.It has entertaining sex scenes.

The film was a psychological movie that is not for everyone as it is not meant to entertain but rather for the audience to see the character development between the main characters.

The acting is commendable as Su Jung excels as the female divorcée.While the rest of the cast are decent.

I would recommend this to anyone who wants another view at a May-December affair especially when maturity comes into place.

I feel from even the raunchiest versions of this type of film (or characters it portrays) to the most solemn, context is important. There are, of course biases, whether in real life and/or fantasy, such as this film. I feel the 'fantasy' for fiction is fine as long as the context is well-defined; good or bad, it always seems to lay on context. As an example: two 'adults' are fine given by the laws of one nation (or state) to the other as long as both parties are mature enough (not only physically but mentally as well) but that's a bit troubling for this film because the age of consent in South Korea (where this film was made around 2005 when released) is 13 years old (their laws are based on the Western Calendar). So, either they have laws that are different based on gender or this film is considerably fictional since the 'underage' male in this is well over the age of 13 (he's actually 19 in the film). I know this sounds, perhaps ridiculous on my part, but it doesn't seem as a reason for her arrest to begin with. So, if the main character of the 'boy' is supposed to be 12 or younger in this, this film is ridiculous on that alone but he obviously is more to the age of 15- 17 (even though, as stated: he's 19); and most other things that require an age requirement in South Korea is 19 years old (drinking, smoking etc.,) and that's the problem for me and this film: no law has been broken. So, why did she get arrested? Why the 100 hrs of Community Service? I don't get it. I read once about a South Korean 45 year old man who apparently had consensual sex with a 15 year old girl in an elevator. At first he was charged and sentenced but since the 15 year old girl sent him love letters, the guy was let go because it was 'consensual'. That's why I mention the development of the person (physically/mentally) because that actually plays a big role in determining whether something is actually consensual or not.

If you separate that part from the film then it's an average erotica film about one person older having an affair with someone younger. The sex scenes are mildly entertaining, especially since they have conversations during them; and also the realization of one character noticing perhaps it's not love but lust, and perhaps it was just a risqué thing to begin with but takes home a life lesson for the better or not.

My biggest problem is the fact no law has been broken (except, at the time, adultery but I only remember that once and the police/reporter dialogue was about the 'young boy' not adultery); and since that's a major plot point: this movie is below average.
