Familiar Plot
Sounds similar to Harrison Ford's "Random Hearts" (1999), but will watch it for Ye-Jin Son. She's simply gorgeous...
shareNot only "Random Hearts", the plot is similar to Wong Kar Wai's "In the Mood for Love" too
shareAnd "In The Mood For Love" didn't deal with death. It dealt with extramarital affairs, which is a pretty broad plot device.
April Snow is actually more similar to Kieslowski's "Bleu"
Well, April Snow wasn't just about death, it was also about extra-marital affairs too. And yes, there are shades of Wong Kar-Wai's ITMFL here, not just on plot but also in the slow, quiet pacing of the movie. Just substitute rain with snow, the narrow streets of 1960s Hong Kong with the wide open space of South Korea's countryside, you'll have another version of ITMFL, albeit set in 2005.

shareYeah. . this is a popular plot and simple.
I tried to remember the title of the movie I saw long time ago that has the same plot. it was a black and white Japanese moive from 1940's I think. Does anyone know?
