Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance with David Ehrlich
Park Chan-Wook kicks off his famous \u201cVengeance\u201d trilogy and we kick off another episode where we talk about Ted Danson\u2019s late 90s sitcom BECKER! Critic, friend of the pod, and Crystal Skull-apologist David Ehrlich joins us to chat about Park\u2019s \u201cSympathy for Mister Vengeance\u201d - a film that shows that revenge is not a dish best served cold, but is actually kind of sad and futile. Come for Ehrlich\u2019s story about his teen trip to Seoul (when he had lunch with Director Park!), stay for the throwback memories of ordering imported DVDs from YesAsia-dot-com and the often misleading branding of the Tartan Asian EXTREME label.\n\nGuest Links: \nRead Ehrlich\u2019s writing at IndieWire\nListen to Fighting in The War Room\nWatch Ehrlich\u2019s Best of Videos\n\nJoin our Patreon for franchise commentaries and bonus episodes.\nFollow us @blankcheckpod on Instagram, Threads, Facebook and X! \nBuy some real nerdy merch.\nConnect with other Blankies on our Reddit or Discord\nFor anything else, check out BlankCheckPod.com \nLearn more about your ad choices.
