Ryder Film Series: DECISION TO LEAVE

Park Chan-wook, the visionary director behind Oldboy and The Handmaiden, won Best Director at Cannes this year for this stylish thriller. Decision to Leave begins with a man falling to his death from a Korean mountain peak, and unravels into a sensual noir with subtle nods to Hitchcock’s Vertigo–a constantly surprising, elegantly constructed film that builds in power to a truly haunting denouement.
