Yourself and Yours

Yourself and Yours, directed by Hong Sang-soo, is a South Korean film about a man wandering the city searching for the woman he just broke up with, while she flirts with two different men who each claim to have never met her before. The film runs a playful investigation into identity and repetition around a central conceit in which a single actress, Lee You-young, plays multiple versions of the same woman; Hong borrows the device from Luis Buñuel's That Obscure Object of Desire while making his own nod to Abbas Kiarostami's Certified Copy. Lead actor Kim Joo-hyuk died in a car accident in Seoul in 2017, about a year after the film's release, making it one of his final released films. The film holds a 94 percent score on Rotten Tomatoes. Who it's for: anyone curious about a South Korean film in which a single actress plays multiple versions of the same woman, playfully investigating identity and repetition. Who it's not for: those looking for a continuation of the lead actor's later career, since Kim Joo-hyuk died in a car accident about a year after the film's release.
