II Mare goes Hollywood
Il Mare is a South Korean film made in 2000, starring Jun Ji-hyun and Lee Jung-Jae. The title, Il Mare, means 'The Sea' in Italian, and is the name of the seaside house which is the setting of the story. The two protagonists both live there two years apart in time, but are able to communicate through a mysterious post box. The film was remade by Warner Brothers starring Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves, to be released in 2006 as The Lake House.
I saw the korean version and while it was a good love story, the pacing was slow. Now Warner Brothers is making the Hollywood version and they put in 2 of my fave actors!!! Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves. Don't know about you but I'll be lining up come June 16, 2006.
