Gangseo-gu, 'Film Humanities Lecture' Starting from the 7th of Next Month
Four Works Including 'Beautiful Mind' with Commentary by Writer Anyongtae
Gangseo-gu, Seoul (Mayor Jin Gyo-hoon) will operate a "Film Humanities Lecture" for four weeks from November 7 to 28.
The theme is "Humanities Reading Films, Pleasant Solitude," which is expected to provide a time to temporarily put aside busy daily life and gain a new perspective on one's life. Participants can watch films with expert commentary.
The films to be viewed together are Beautiful Mind (11/7), Life of Pi (11/14), The Lives of Others (11/21), and The Dark Knight (11/28). Writer Ahn Yong-tae, a CGV Movie Talk host who has given over 1,200 humanities lectures at schools and companies, will serve as the lecturer, delivering background knowledge, plot, and key scenes of the films in an easy-to-understand manner.
Each film will have subtitles such as "A Conversation with Another Self Within Me," "What Is a Balanced Life?," "Sartre's Gaze of the Other," and "The Two Faces of a Hero," to explore the meanings contained in the films and provide time for participants to share their impressions.
