Past Lives (12A) | Dir. Celine Song | 2023 | SOUTH KOREA/USA | IMDb 7.8 | 105 mins | Subtitles

Past Lives follows two childhood friends over the course of 24 years, sharing a common bond, but leading very different lives in different countries and cultures. Universal themes of time passing, and the role of destiny are explored in a delicate and sophisticated manner. This remarkable, poignant film début was nominated for an academy award for best picture.

Trivia
In an interview on June 2, 2023 on NPR with Ailsa Chang, Greta Lee indicated that she found it amusing that when she told her family and friends that she was taking this role, many of them were surprised and wondered if she could even speak Korean.
Despite his character's thick accent and broken English, Teo Yoo, who portrays Hae Sung, actually speaks very fluent English along with three other languages.
