Film director Park Chan Wook's "Thirst" placed 10th in Time magazine's "Top 10 Movies of 2009" list. In regards to the movie, Richard Corliss of Time wrote:
"New Moon grossed at least half a billion dollars at the worldwide box office; Thirst earned $318,574 in North America. But the South Korea mad-love story was our vampire movie of the year."Corliss also had high praises for Kim Ok Bin, going on to write:
"In this nutsy-greatsy melodrama, the acting revelation is Kim, who evolves from a creature of mute docility to one of desperate ardor, then explosive eroticism, then murderous intent. She is Lady Chatterley and Lady Macbeth in one smoldering package."Park Chan Wook must be feeling pretty good nowadays considering he is still getting recognized for Old Boy and now this. Congratulations are in order!
