 ates art as much as art imitates life  In this mini drama the action of the entire movie reaches a crescendo  The character Yong gi  s wife  Lee Yeong Ae  is in the audience as he acts in a vaudeville performance combining mime  slapstick  female impressionism and operatic tragedy  His partner is playing a husband and he is the wife  They are in their bathing costumes at the beach  The husband  played by Lee Jeong Jae  is being nagged and beaten by his wife  Tears of joy and sorrow stream from Jong yoon  s face as she looks on  As in the recognition scene of a classical drama  she finally recognizes the true nature of their relationship  It is the story of their life together  The performers are swimming and a shark appears  Jong yoon laughs and weeps at the perils of their domestic life  as husband and wife go under and are nearly drowned  Jung yun then winces with pain  As Yong gi breaks into operatic voice  a tear smeared kiss on his cheek  Jung yun grows faint  Yong gi !  spots his wife in the crowd and can see she  s in pain  He cro!  uches be hind the screen  wondering what he should do next  His partner urges him to get up  Jung yun is losing consciousness  but she smiles  tears streaming down her face  She recognizes that the performance is a tribute to her  And much as a dying person sees his life flash before his eyes  so she sees her whole life in Yong gi  s scenario  When his voice reaches a crescendo  Jung yun  s eyes close and the world and the stage fade  This scene in Last Present has a truly cathartic effect  Lasting only a few minutes  it is a moving spectacle  a film in itself  One can piece together the details of the entire drama by watching this one scene  It is a vivid refection of the drama itself  an endless succession of mirrors within mirrors linking it to the main plot  Last Present has multiple meanings  On one level  we can see that love is a gift  In a letter Jung yun has written  we see that she clearly regards Yong gi as such   You  re the most beautiful gift this world has given me   B!  ut there is also a touching exchange of gifts midway through the film  In one scene  Yong gi waits outside the hamburger restaurant where Jung yun works with a bouquet of flowers  Her shift lasts longer than expected  so he leaves  She looks mournfully out the window  saddened that he wasn  t patient enough to wait  But when she turns to see who has come into the shop  a crowd of men line up to place bouquets of flowers on the countertop  At home  Jung yun presents Yong gi with a jacket  He tries it on  and through sleight of hand  pulls a box out of the sleeve  Inside is a ring  which he slips on her finger  It is clear from her letter that Jung yun also regards Yong gi  s performing talent as a gift   Even the thought of making people laugh on stage is pleasing   But the greatest gift is the vaudeville performance he presents in her honor in the play within a play scene  And then there is life  the most precious gift of all  Jung yun  s conception of life is implicit in h!  er letter   It  s getting harder to think about leaving you be!  hind  So metimes I wonder what you would do without me  At other times  I  m comforted by the thought that time heals everything  When I see you  I  m happy to remember our time together  Don  t be lonely without me  We only live once  I  m just leaving a little sooner  so don  t be sad   Perhaps the most agonizing scene in Last Present is the one in which Yong  gi discovers a terrible secret his wife was keeping  She had been behaving irrationally  yelling at him for no apparent reason  He thinks there is something wrong with her and goes into her room to investigate  He finds some pills  Suspecting the worst  he consults her doctor and learns the truth  that she is terminally ill  Not willing to accept the hard truth  he accuses the doctor of lying and grabs him by the collar  His diary conveys his true feelings   Jung yun   Park Jung yun   the girl I wanted to embrace all my life  My woman  Park Jung yun  she  s ill  very ill  There  s nothing that can be done  Dear God  give us a!   bit more time   for me to do what I can for her   Jung yun has endeavored to keep the secret from him to protect him  She does not want to jeopardize his job  which depends on a stress free existence  The irony is that his performances are enhanced by personal tragedy  The more tragic his real life becomes  the more comic is his routine  Last Present is generous in many ways  It offers much to the audience because it gives us a cinematic experience on a Shakespearean scale  We have a tragicomic drama presenting us with a hero and heroine  and comic relief provided by the two actors who play the role of clowns  But Last Present is also bighearted to its cast  particularly actor Lee Jong jae  His extraordinary talent is used to its full potential in this film  The masks of tragedy and comedy suit this thespian equally well  A tall  ungainly figure with long  lanky limbs  he  s the object of fun in the comic mode  but his tender eyes and handsome face make him a fit subject f!  or tragedy  the hero  s misfortunes move us  The film score by!   Jo Sung  woo is another fine offering for the way it carries each pivotal scene to its climax  The director  Oh Gi Hwan  received the screenplay for Last Present as something of a gift as well  When it fell into his lap in Jan  2000  he was immediately struck by the sad and moving tone of the melodrama  The film went to production that September and was shot in just five months  The final scene  s location  shot this January at Chung Ang University  was given out over the Internet  attracting a number of people who appear in the film as extras  Released  24th Mar  01Casts  ì´ì ì¬  Lee Jeong Jae  ì´ìì   Lee Yeong Ae  ê¶í´í¨  Gweon Hae Hyo Watched  On TV  Channel U  on 10th Jul  04Review   Last Present   Is Generous Offering by Timothy Watson April 04  2001The movie Last Present a k a   The Gift    contains scenes of a captivating play  which itself contains a play within it  The hallmark of any masterpiece is a well  executed play within a play  What makes it such a profoun!
