Noodles in movies: Love of ordinary people

12 Apr

1. Cracked eggs&noodles (2005, S.Korea directed by Sang Hoon-Oh)

Love between father and son who don’t live in easy circumstances. Ramen noodle shows the symbol of love of family even though they are not rich.

2. In the mood for love(2000, Hong Kong film directed by Wong Kar-wai)

In this movie, a square selling noodle soup in night market is a place for the poor public. At this place, the main characters ran into and fell in love, even though they were just neighbors living  next door.The woman character ‘Su’ went there to buy noodles for eating alone in her apt, and the guy ‘Chow’ living next door went to eat noodles. Noodle in this movie, represents loneliness of people living modern time.

3. Rush Hour(1998, United States directed by Bret Ratner)

I didn’t watch this movie, but found this scene in Youtube. It is so funny 😛
