I saw the movie "Poetry" yesterday and highly recommend it if you like quiet, more thoughtful, introspective films and don't mind sub-titles.
A hardworking grandmother is faced with some serious news about her future and about a crime committed by her grandson. The grandmother begins to take a class in poetry and uses the class to understand and deal with her life's new circumstances. I found it a beautiful film but would not suggest going if you are looking for a light-hearted experience.
Aside from the themes of the film I was interested in the glimpse of Korean life, of which I know nothing. I also found I wanted to de-clutter her apartment.
