Wonderful drama

Maundy Thursday is a very touching story about an ex-singer and a prisoner, brought together by the former's nun aunt. They meet each Thursday to talk and a (platonic) relationship slowly forms between the two. It touches on the wrongs of capital punishment and forgiving those who have done you wrong.

The acting in the film as very good, especially from Na-yeong Lee who played the female lead character. I think the director handled this film much better than Calla, nothing was overdone.

I really wish I could get ahold of the original novel, but it doesn't look too likely. However, I recommend this film to anyone interested in Asian films, as it really is well made and has a great story. It is very sad though, so those prone to tears may need a box of tissues. ;)
