I thought that this film would be nice, considering the fact that the storyline spoke about a "200 pound" beauty.( I wanted to watch it because I myself am obese). The way she suffers hurt because of the way the world perceives her was nicely presented.
The film is a indirect satire on the society, which DEMANDS that you look "good" and "presentable" to be "accepted". The way Hanna changes to Jenny, just to "prove her worth" in the eyes of the man, whom she loves so much, is something which we must together change as a society.
I'm surprised that this film doesn't figure in the must-watch list of Hollywood critics, who compile the top 100 lists regularly. This is an absolutely MUST WATCH film. The way the director presents the story is what makes it immensely heart touching. The end concert scene made me nearly cry. Wow!! Due credit must be given to the film's heroine Kim Ah-joong who lives her role. She communicates her emotions so clearly through her lovely eyes and face expressions that you end up admiring so much, because she makes you forget that she's acting!!! Kudos to her.
The male lead also suits perfectly. Hanna's friend and the recording company boss' son are superb.
The scenes between dog-Jenny and Jenny in lift make you laugh a lot. Oh I also cannot forget the love making scenes where she says "not here" and "not there, either"!!! The concert takes the film to amazing heights and makes it a movie-experience you don't wanna miss out. Hats off to the entire team for making such a fine film. You truly rocked my life!!!!
