Shin Mina goes old Hollywood for Bazaar
I have such a fondness for Hollywood classics, and adore once-gumiho
Shin Mina (
My Girlfriend Is a Gumiho). Naturally, when I get two things I love wrapped in one, that makes me one happy camper. ‘S like math. This photo shoot for
Harper’s Bazaar shows Shin taking on the guise of various scenes from familiar Hollywood classics, like
Bonnie and Clyde (1967), above, where she looks absolutely stunning; and looking comical
below as Charlie Chaplin in the famous shoe-eating scene from
The Gold Rush (1925).
The photo spread is part and parcel of a Short Film Festival, featuring five of Chungmuro’s top dogs: directors
Park Chan-wook (
Oldboy),
Lee Hyun-seung (
Blue Salt),
Kim Ji-woon (
I Saw the Devil),
Jang Jun-hwan (
Camellia),
Park Jin-pyo (
My Love By My Side)
in a special project, where they recreate their favorite mise-en-scene
(think: everything in the frame of one stellar shot from a movie) in an
anthology of short films, starring Shin Mina.
Pretty cool, and not a bad way to promote a short film fest, with a
big star and slew of top directors to play around with scenes we’re all
familiar with, in our collective pop culture memories. Can’t wait to see
the rest of the shots in the spread, and also the anthology that
results.
The 10th Mise-en-scene Short Film Festival will take place at the
Yongsan CGV, from June 24-30. It looks worth checking out, if you’re
yunno, hopping around Korea for the summer.
