Which of these should I watch for the first time tonight, and which is your favorite? Thanks for the help.
Momma Sed - Changes come. Keep your dignity. Take the high road. Take it like a man.
The only one i've seen is Sympathy For Lady Vengeance but it's well worth watching, i highly recommend it.
Come and play with us Danny. Forever and ever and ever
Thanks, only one in the trilogy I've yet to see. How does it fare with Oldboy and Mr. Vengeance?

I don't think it's as good as the others but it's still a cracking film. Great finish to a fantastic trilogy.
If you like Park Chan-wook i'd recommend seeing Joint Security Area...if you haven't already.

This is probably the only one of these three that I will be able to convince my wife to watch with me, so I'll probably end up watching this one.

Synecdoche, NY. Trust me, it's the best of the three.
Also, I'm pretty sure your wife would like it too. It's similar to Eternal Sunshine, in that both men and women can really enjoy it.

"Synecdoche" is one of the larger turds I've had to endure in many a year, and while I am not a Park fan would rather watch his film again than have to endure Kaufman's intolerable junk. "The Straight Story", on the other hand, is one that I would recommend without any reservations whatsoever.

No kidding.
I liked it myself.

It's hard to understand how one can hate Synecdoche, and still call themselves a film buff. Not when it's as poorly written and executed as it is, no. It's as overly-precious and 'deep' as something written by a depressive adolescent. Synecdoche is an essential viewing for anyone who appreciates artistic movies. Apparently not. ||||||||||||||| ||||| | |||

I've only seen the last two, but both are fantastic. Two of my favourite films ever. I prefer Synecdoche, but The Straight Story is much easier to watch. http://www.imdb.com/media/rm2676921344/nm0001132
