miracle in cell no . 7 is a human comedy about the seemingly impossible mission of yong - gu ( ryu seung - ryong ) , who has the intelligence of a 6 - year - old , as he cooperates with career criminals in order to bring his daughter to his prison cell which outsiders are strictly forbidden to enter . the official release date is january 24th .
out of last year’s biggest hits , perhaps none is as much of a household name as miracle in cell no . 7 , which was not only the highest - grossing film of the year but also the third highest - grossing domestic film of all time , trailed only by the thieves and the host . no small feat , that’s for sure .
bottom line : deeply moving and emotionally heartfelt , miracle in cell no . 7 boasts fantastic performances from a quirky set of characters in circumstances that are perhaps a little too fanciful at times , but no less compelling for it . a rare gem that will truly make you laugh and cry before making you do it all over again backward and six times over . 9 / 10 .
in cell number 7 they were practicing what yong - gu should say in the court . he was told by his daughter to just read exactly what they have prepared for him . no matter what they are doing – jogging in the morning , eating , in the toilet , before sleeping – they are practicing for the trial .
filming began june 20 , 2012 in daejeon , south korea . the first scene filmed involved yong - goo ( ryoo seung - ryong ) who meets his cellmates in cell block 7 for the first time .
without dimension or depths , “miracle” indulges in deep and uncomfortable melodramatics that some will find hard - pressed to overlook . as such , many reviewers , including myself , find it difficult not to recommend the film to those viewers looking for a light , well packaged , and entertaining film . as mentioned the film is visually quite appealing with much of the film being carefully crafted to ensure the quality of the eye - candy onscreen . that , along with some likable performances , makes “miracle in cell no . 7” a hard film to hate or even score poorly . sickeningly sweet and hollow throughout , lee hwan - gyeong “miracle in cell no . 7” has delighted 12 . 8m viewers with just such a tactic . there are no miracles here though , just a potent glamour and enough stardust to keep you choking on emotion till the credits role .
in a statement , thomas kim , ceo kross pictures has said ,
since 2015 , we have made patient and significant inroads into the indian film and entertainment market . it ' s a delight to announce the hindi remake of miracle in cell no 7 with an acclaimed director like umesh shukla , as a fitting follow up to our last film te3n .
a mentally handicapped single father is wrongly accused , tried and sentenced to death for the rape - murder of an elementary school girl in lee hwan - kyung ’s miracle in cell no . 7 . the miracle of the title is the series of meetings the man has with his daughter while in prison in the months that lead up to his execution and the friendship she forges with his fellow inmates . years later , the girl grows into a woman set on exonerating her dad with their help . oh , this is a comedy .

miracle ceded its top box - office spot to local noir actioner new world this weekend .
i did feel manipulated by this movie , but its heart was its saving grace , and i allowed myself to indulge in the torrent of tears it induced . i usually avoid that type of movie , but miracle in cell no . 7 was a beautiful exception to my rule . ( i ' ll add a werewolf boy and my sister ' s keeper to the list of beautiful exceptions . )
it was snowing and she saw a balloon flying in the sky and got caught in the barbed wires . that is the picture above and the one which i like to represent the movie with in this post . it is because this balloon getting caught in the barbed wire tells so much about the undying love of the father and daughter for each other and the miracles that happened in cell no . 7 .
bengaluru : kross pictures and kross television india have filed a case against the makers of kannada movie , pushpaka vimana ( 2017 ) after reading media reports that said that film is a remake of the korean film miracle in cell no 7 . the owners of the indian remake rights of the superhit korean movie have filed an injunction order and a case of infringement in the bombay high court against vikyath chitra productions , pawan wadeyar film factory and others involved in the making of this film . however , director s ravindranath claims that pushpaka vimana was not a remake of miracle in cell no 7 , but a film that was inspired from four films .

thomas kim , ceo kross pictures stated , “since 2015 we have made patient and significant inroads into the indian film and entertainment market . we are committed to maintaining focus on quality and concept driven content , as we build a strong footprint here in india . it’s a delight to announce the hindi remake of miracle in cell no . 7 with an acclaimed director like umesh shukla , as a fitting follow - up to our last film te3n . “
explains , ' some reports suggested that pushpaka vimana is a remake , but that is not true . i am a film buff and a big fan of world cinema . i have been in the film industry for eight years , but didn ' t get a chance to work with an established director , so i learnt the art by watching international films . i referred to many of them to see the relationship between a father and son / daughter , and even that of a mentally - challenged man ' the characteristics of my leading man . that is when i noticed that the character i wrote had many similarities to that of the protagonist in the korean film , miracle in cell no . 7 . i have adapted some parts of that movie , life is beautiful and the pursuit of happyness in pushpaka vimana . we waited for a while to reveal this fact as we were securing the rights for miracle in cell no . 7 .

the film is particularly popular among middle - aged and elderly koreans and through word of mouth , its popularity is continuing to rise , holding it at the top position of the box office charts . attention is now focused on whether miracle in cell no . 7 will surpass the scores of all - time most popular films such as the host ( 13 , 019 , 740 ) and the thieves ( 12 , 983 , 334 ) .
outsiders not allowed ! in room 7 of the prison where all kinds of criminals are gathered , comes yong - gu , a father with the sense of a 6 year - old and his 7 year - old daughter ye - seung . the mission of these criminals in room 7 is to protect these two who can never stay apart for a single moment .

and so , the cellmates planned on how they will smuggle yea - seong in prison . in one religious event where the church choir is singing for the prisoners , they got yea - seong , put her in a box and delivered her to their cell . the father and daughter had a reunion in cell number 7 . afraid that if they get caught they will have to add 2 more years to their stay in prison , bong - sik called the guard and was about to tell him that they smuggled the little girl in .
meanwhile , miracle in cell no . 7 is rewriting the human comedy genre , drawing in 4 million in 12 days since release . the film drew in 15 % more audience members compared to its first week despite the berlin file being released . as of february 2 , the film booked 75 . 8 % of itsseats , which is slightly higher than 73 . 8 % of the thieves in its first week , raising expectations for the film to become a long - time favorite . the figure is higher than the second week saturday scores of a werewolf boy in its second week ( 530 , 000 ) and masquerade ( 490 , 000 ) .
ye - sung was secretly brought to the cell to be with her father , yong - gu .

one day , in the courtyard , yong - gu saw a minion of one prisoner sharpening something . the prisoner leader who seemed to be a rival of yong - gu’s cell boss is about to stab his rival and yong - gu ran to cover and save him . because of this incident he became friends with his cellmates and their cell boss said he will grant a wish for yong - gu . yong - gu’s only wish is to see his daughter again . here began the miracles in cell number 7 .
other prisoners are watching sadly as the father and daughter savoring the last few minutes passed by their cell .
dies in a freak accident while she is taking yong gu to another store that sells the same backpack . when he tries to resuscitate her , a woman witnesses him and mistakes him to be molesting her . yong gu is falsely accused of the abduction , murder , and rape of a minor . the police quickly take advantage of his disability and force him to admit to committing the crimes , while ignoring exonerating evidence . yong gu is imprisoned and assigned to cell no . 7 , the harshest cell in a maximum security prison .
starting off the new year with a bang , miracle in cell no . 7 is one of the first major hits of 2013 . the prison drama with a twist ( it’s a family melodrama ) scored the biggest opening weekend since the thieves , which went on to become the highest - grossing korean film of all time , opened last summer . with its mix of appealing genres , engaging ensemble cast and social themes , the studio picture struck a chord with audience and is likely to continue performing strongly through february .
it was now december 23 . yea - seong is in cell number 7 eating with his father and the cellmates . there was a sad atmosphere . she has no idea that it is already the day – the last day she will see her father . there was a made - up cake . yea - seong blew the imaginary candles of the cake… because it was her birthday celebration .

director lee hwan - kyung confidently handles the proceedings , building on his experience with sentimental fare such as lump of sugar ( 2006 ) and champ ( 2011 ) . the film is designed to elicit an emotional response from viewers but it takes care not to go too far . by blending many genres such as prison drama , family melodrama and more , not to mention numerous pressing social themes ranging from child abuse to the unfair legal system , miracle in cell no . 7 offers a little bit of something to all comers .

with a budget much lower than most of its fellow box office winners and a cast devoid of the usual a - list suspects , miracle in cell no . 7 tells a much more intimate story that knows exactly which strings to pull in order to deliver both a heartwarming testament to the tenacity of the human spirit , as well as the saddest story ever told . though its overall message is positive if not distinctly bittersweet , it seems a fair warning to potential audience members experiencing a rough patch or those with fluctuating views on the state of humanity that this may not be the right movie for you .
why kim so - eun rolling in this cheap drama ? ? she can be the no . 1 actress in all dramas . . . what a waste to watch this drama . ( > _ < )
co - producer and founder of indian film studios , utpal acharya revealed , “our association with kross pictures for the hindi adaptation and remake of the famous korean film ‘ miracle in cell number 7 ‘ along with director of ‘ o my god ‘and ‘ 102 not out ’ umesh shukla is a just another new beginning and a great leap of faith . we are superbly excited to take this association to next level with kross pictures and looking forward to developing together in many other projects as well” .
meanwhile , i watched
miracle in cell no . 7
on the first day of release here in korea . i was surprised to see the theater fully packed for the afternoon screening . there were also a lot more teens in the theater than i expected . anyways
miracle in cell no . 7
throws together several different genres and , overall , does a fairly good job . the young girl kal so - won was simply amazing in the movie . couldn ' t believe she expressed the range of emotions she displayed in the film . park shin - hye was also really impressive , in particular loved her acting job in the court room scenes . i was a lot more neutral on the performance of ryoo seung - ryong . ever since dustin hoffman in
rain man ,
i have had a personal dislike of regular actors portraying people with mental disabilities - kind of too hammy for me to watch . but , he was ok and i didn ' t really think too much about his performance by the second half . my big gripe with the film is the later portions of the film . it ' s too sappy for me personally , but for others it might be a lot more touching . i didn ' t really know where the story would go and this part i enjoyed the most . definitely , not many people will hate this movie and a lot of people will love it . i thought it was a wee bit better than average .
the story of the film revolves around a mentally challenged man wrongfully imprisoned for murder , who builds friendships with hardened criminals in his cell . in return , they reunite him with his daughter by smuggling her into the prison .
note : there will be some spoilers . there’s no big twist in the end to preserve , but i’ll try to avoid the story’s biggest ( only ? ) secret .

the story of the film revolves around a mentally - challenged man wrongfully imprisoned for murder , who builds friendships with hardened criminals in his cell . in return , they reunite him with his daughter by smuggling her into the prison .
in miracle in cell no . 7 , our intellectually impaired hero yong - goo is found standing over a dead girl’s body and caught trying to unbutton her pants while the blood still runs out the back of her skull . the viewer is not presented with the facts as to what actually transpired . instead , like the legal system that judges yong - goo , we can only assess things on the surface of what is seen . seemingly driven by quick results , the court hastily imprisons yong - goo after manipulating him into signing a confession . his mental handicap is , in the legal sense , dismissed and used against him behind closed doors to ensure case closure of the young girls death . later on in film his appeal process takes centre stage .
a single father with the mental capacity of a young child is accused of the abduction , assault and murder of a young girl . innocent , but unable to defend himself , he is quickly sentenced to death and hauled off to prison , separated from the treasure in his life , his young daughter yeseung . within the confines of cell no . 7 , his childlike demeanor and pure spirit soon inspire his hardened cellmates to grant him a very special wish . yeseung is snuck into the cell but now they must all be careful not to alert the suspicions of the warden .
yea - seong as she was hiding at the foot of the door held bong - sik’s hand pleading him not to say anything . and bong - sik might have been emotionally affected or perhaps just another miracle worked its way into bong - sik and he did not say anything to the guard regarding the girl in their cell .
miracle in cell no . 7 boasts a stellar ensemble cast that features some of korea’s most prolific working actors . ryu seung - ryong , who is red hot after the successes of last year’s all about my wife and masquerade , heads the proceedings as the wrongly convicted father . showing off his versatile ability as a performer , ryoo strikes just the right balance in the kind of role that has in the past spelt disaster for even some of the most talented thespians . bouncing off him and adding an array of colorful characters to the proceedings are veteran supporting players such as oh dal - soo , who has appeared in a great number of the best korean films of the past decade , who is on great form as the cell boss , while others such as kim jung - tae , park won - sang , jung man - sik , kim ki - chun and jung jin - young fill out the terrific cast .
society may not always have our best interests at heart . laws and regulations are tangled with bureaucracy and riddled with a rigidity that often leaves the individual alone and unrepresented . modern korean cinema has embraced the depiction of such societal frustrations , often choosing to downplay authority figures while indulging melodramatics . favorable genres such as the seasonal horror and persistent gangster flicks , consistently contain themes of an inauthentic authorial agency that subverts social authority . the results of such threads can easily be seen in this year’s highest grossing korean film miracle in cell no . 7 , an entertaining and emotionally charge film that scores big on presentation , but failed to attend to the enriching details that makes a story memorable .
this movie is the most amazing drama movie i have ever watched . when my friends told me that this one made them cry a lot , i tried my best to find a copy . at first , i was sad because the copy that i have downloaded doesn ' t have a subtitle . but even if there ' s no subtitle , and that i watched it with pure korean language , i still watched it and bravo ! it ' s true that action speaks louder than words , ' cause it was still able to make me cry a lot . i have never cried that much . i never thought i would find a movie as touching as this ! awesome ! i want drama movies to be as touching as miracle in cell no . 7 ! 100 thumbs up !
then a box is delivered to cell number 7 , it was from the chief . and inside the box was yea - seong . all of them were surprised . yong - gu was brought to the chief’s office and the chief was still cold but yong - gu thanked him for what he did .
this is a good example that being good has no exemptions . . . you don ' t have to be perfect to show that . .
the premises is simple - an intellectually disabled father is found guilty for a murder that he didn ' t commit and throughout it all his daughter , ye seung stuck by him . he is sentence to prison and placed in cell no . 7 with inmates . he is treated badly at first because of the fact that he was charged with the murder and rape of a child . though as the story progresses people begin to realise that a guy like this couldn ' t have possibly done something atrocious as that !
whoa . finally , the questions in my mind was answered by your comments specially in this synopsis . thank you all guys .
it is this odd mix of broad comedy and issue - based drama that makes miracle so perplexing and logic - defying . it’s hard to tell if lee has made a social drama ( legal shortcomings and cronyism make headlines in korea ) disguised as a goofy comedy or a comedy with an undercurrent of righteous anger . either way , the film wouldn ' t work at all if it wasn’t packed with engaging performances by some of korea’s most reliable second - stringers . ryu ( war of the arrows ) waffles between caricature and affecting as the handicapped yong - gu , and gal occasionally suffers an overabundance of cute ( though she’s far more interesting than park ) , but the rest of the cast more than compensate for their shortcomings , particularly oh ( the thieves ) and jeong ( the king and the clown ) . miracle in cell no . 7 is one of those films you don’t want to , one you know you shouldn’t , but you just can’t help liking .
have never cried this much before while watching a movie . seriously recommended to those who have second thoughts to watch it . no regrets ! ( ' :
recently , i was browsing my news feed at facebook , then some of the statuses i am reading are talking about this certain korean movie . it ' s entitled as miracle in cell no . 7 . well at first , i was not really interested about it . i thought , it may be like the usual movie about a prisoner or something . but , my cousin once told me that she already watched the movie and surprisingly , she said that it really made her cry that much . then i thought , maybe i should try watching it . so , i do . and gosh , it almost felt like i cried a million tears . the movie is really heartbreaking . it is very touching . it was totally amazing .
what follows is a story that takes place in two time periods . there’s the modern storyline , where the father’s grown - up daughter works as a lawyer to clear his name—though that takes up far less screen time than the flashback to 1997 , the year that her father was accused and imprisoned in cell no . 7 . it was there that he met the cellmates who would become not only his friends but also family to him and his daughter after they devise an ( admittedly improbable ) plan to sneak her into the prison . soon the entire prison population joins in the effort to try and save the innocent man from being executed , culminating in a heart - rending and revelatory masterpiece which manages to shine a spotlight on humanity at its best and at its unbelievable , infuriating worst .
in the cell , yea - seong asked the cell boss to read him a book . we learned that cell boss is an illiterate . he does not know how to read and write and unknowingly his cellmates totally insulted him . bong - sik also has a baby on the way and he also wants to bring his baby inside the prison but was told off by the boss . the boss even said whispering to bong - sik to avoid being overheard by yea - seong that is he is envious then get a death sentence too ( this is yong - gu’s verdict ) .
two monster sized local hits powered the box office in late january and early february . leading the pack was the comic drama miracle in cell no . 7 , which took 4 . 6 million admissions in two weeks on the back of strong word - of - mouth . this is the equivalent of more than us $ 30 million , and the film is continuing to do well as it heads into its third week . distributed by n . e . w . , the work tells the story of a man with the mental capabilities of a six - year - old who is put into a prison cell together with a group of notoriously tough criminals . eventually , they work together to try to reunite the man and his young daughter . ryu seung - ryong , who enjoyed success in the 2012 comedy all about my wife , plays the lead character of yong - gu , together with an ensemble cast of experienced actors . it is directed by lee hwan - kyung , whose three previous films he was cool ( 2004 ) , lump of sugar ( 2006 ) , and champ ( 2011 ) enjoyed variable success , but nothing on the level of this new film .
princess shin hye will be playing the daughter role of seung ryong ? ? no leading man for our princess shin hye ? can ' t wait to see this movies .
i watched this movie today and i was really sad at the ending . i was hoping somehow miracle might happen and yong gu might be alive but no its tragedy that he was dead already . am okay with that yong gu is dead but what i couldn’t take it was that though hisinnocence was proven but still no punishment was given to detectives who are all responsible for an innocent man’s death . also that piece of garbage head of police was not punished . all they do in the end is just forgive his crimes but what about the innocent life they have taken . thanks for the detailed review and summary
the chief noticed the missing child in the picture and had the suspicion that she is kept in the prison . the guard is checking the cell for the child . and it was funny how they tried to hide but they were caught in the end , and yong - gu beaten again under the rain was sent to solitary confinement . and yea - seong was sent back to the orphanage .
unfortunately the bus left without yea - seong , and they were left with no choice but to keep her in their cell . at night , yea - seong is saying sorry to her father because she asked for the sailor moon bag which became the cause of all the misfortune . but the father only said that he will buy the bag once he gets out of there . the child told her father to be sure to speak to the judge carefully and clearly one word at a time . the design of the fluorescent lamp cover is a beautiful illusion of the moon and stars for the prisoners inside their cell .
where is the conflict then in this tale ? again , like so many other korean films “miracle” locates its friction in public authority and the system it serves . both the lives of yong - goo and ye - seung are without much cause for concern ( outside of them not physically being together ) , and it is only later that their future is really threatened . simply put , “miracle in cell no . 7” is actually less about a father - daughter relationship than it is about victims of authority . it’s the handicapped man versus the system here , the individual who has nothing but love in his heart and the forces at large that prevent him from enacting that passion . corrupt and unprofessional policeman abuse his disposition , beating him to his knees to confess to a crime he didn’t commit . evidence , due course , justice is dispensed and openly disregarded and manipulated with the facade of democracy there for all to see . it matters not whether he did or didn’t murder the girl , only that yong - goo’s soft mind was malleable enough to pressure him into submitting to the regulations and expectations of the legal process . this , unfortunately , reduces ye - seung to nothing more than a plot hinge , an empty narrative device whose only function is to embody this simple man’s desire .
she has more than 5 years of professional experience , having worked with reliance entertainment and radio 1 in legal advisory roles . she holds a bachelor’s degree in law from pravin gandhi college of law with a diploma in cyber law from asian school of cyber laws . ruchi engages in various extra - curricular activities . she loves dancing and has won many accolades in numerous dance competitions .
waoh . . . great storyline , directing and acting . . . so much passion . . . i ' ve never seen such gem in bollywood and hollywood cinemas . . . . zers is no one who can challenge ze south korean cinema . . .
later there was fire in the prison and in the midst of it the chief was trapped in a room with the perpetrator of the fire . yong - gu saved the chief , he carried him on his back and despite inhaling so much smoke he was still more concerned with the chief saying “help him , our chief help him please” . and then another miracle happened . this was the start of the chief to see yong - gu in a different light and began to question if he was really a kidnapper and murderer .
one of the best movie . . . sad story and makes audience in tears
while he was in prison , yea - seong was brought to an orphanage .
ryu seung ryong is nothing short of amazing in this one . highly recommended !
amen . i watched my fair share of tearjerkers but miracle no7 was too manipulative . it was too obvious even for me . i cried ofc but i was also angry at the writers . i cried angry tears ^ ^
ten million moviegoers would represent about one - fifth of the asian country’s population . the family comedy needed to sell 1 . 7 million tickets to break even ; it reached the 10 million plateau on saturday night .
i watch this movie the last two days in theater , its the premiere one ( don ' t know why its played too late in jakarta ) i went to cinema with my boyfren n my brother , and its just the three of us in the theater . . no one else ! ! i mean really the 3 of us only . . its empty . the movie also not convincing in the beginning , but after i watch it i find myself crying so bad . . such a great movie . .
what i see and feel in this movies is just love in the purest kind . their father and daughter bond was for me the driving force of the story .
i saw this on exo show time and when i watched i was literally crying my eyes out . but best movie i have ever seen , no american movies can even compare to this one !
the hearing is for the re - investigation of a case of the accused lee yong - gu . the prosecutor said that there is no more need for re - investigation because it has been proven in the past that the accused is guilty . yea - seung , the lawyer , defended the accused with the argument that the so - called evidences and confirmed testimonies are the mistake of this trial and must be looked back . the prosecutor is not the one in charge of the case in the past and his defense are based on fraudulent data made up by detectives long ago . the prosecutor asked the same question if the lawyer is the lawyer assigned in the past . she said no , but that she was definitely there .

little ye - sung brings joy into each of their lives with understanding far beyond her years , as she does good deeds like teaching the illiterate leader so how to read and smuggling a cell phone in so bong - shik can call his pregnant wife . they’re as real a family as any .
he has worked with prominent names in the entertainment industry including reliance entertainment in the distribution space . shital is well known in the industry for his negotiation skills and effective relationship management competencies . he has a keen eye for business with strong focus on revenue maximisation .
while living in the cell , yea - seong grew to love her father’s cellmates and to be loved by them . she colored one of the playboy models stuck on the wall and dressed her up in sailor moon outfit . then she performed sailor moon song and famous line of “in the name of justice” . they all laughed at her cuteness and said that it is what judges say so it must be judge moon . together with her father they danced and sang happily .
director ryoo seung - wan has hit number one at the box office with his latest film . the berlin file brought in 1 . 53 million admissions in its first weekend , marking a new chapter for the korean spy action genre . the film surpassed the two million mark in the shortest time among films that were released in january and february this year .
@ salma @ lalala - park shin - hye appears in the beginning of the film , the middle of the film and the end of the film . her appearance in terms of total runtime isn ' t large , but she plays a huge role in the film .

“the honkers” is the sluggish and sentimental record of three bad days in the life of lew lathrop ( james coburn ) , a good‐natured rodeo circuit rider whose only fault seems to be that he is a little more self‐centered than can be accommodated by a faithful wife .

the realities of the hollywood star system prevent

from being the film it might have been and telling the story it wants to tell , and that is a shame . top billing in the film goes to james coburn ( who is the star in question , of course ) and we learn that he ' s a honker - a hard - riding , hard - living rodeo tough guy , etc . the movie has to go through the motions of being about him .

instead and with lois nettleton and slim pickens , created a low rent slice of life around the unlikely plot line of an over the hill rodeo star losing everything .
the scenes between miss nettleton and pickens are the heart of the movie . there ' s one over coffee in the kitchen where pickens tells her he knows coburn ' s a bastard -
but i ' m in the middle on this thing . i love you and i love him .
pickens is treated by coburn as an always - faithful mascot and pickens puts up with that because he admires his friend .
a tribute to the late tab hunter , a gay matinee idol and hollywood trailblazer .
( 1972 ) is no different . in fact , it fits the mold perfectly .

but the fact is that the movie ' s story - the one that grips and interests us despite the many pointless coburn scenes - is really about two of the people closest to him , his best friend and his wife . they both understand coburn pretty well . they know he ' s irresponsible and infantile and insensitive , but they love him . in a way , they ' re drawn together by their feeling for him .

it took a long time for james coburn to become a star . beginning on tv in the fifties , he amassed well over 100 individual credits before he finally became a star in the 1966 spy spoof ,
the movie takes the three characters , including a son that lew and linda have , and follows them for a few days while lew attempts to get some money and some pride back by competing in the local rodeo . we find out about what we figured we would , that lew ' s a self - centered teenager who is thoroughly unequipped to be a giving husband or responsible father . it ' s not that any of this is unexpected , it ' s how the characters deal with it that makes the difference .

the movie is thrown out of proportion , unfortunately , by its need to seem to star coburn . steve ihnat , an excellent actor directing for the first time , fills in the gaps by giving us long takes of coburn walking while songs are sung , and he throws in a hat - stealing scene that is plain ridiculous .

didn ' t achieve much success at the box office and even now it ' s mostly unknown . it did give slim pickens and lois nettleton a chance to show their skills as actors in a way most studio productions wouldn ' t have and coburn got to play the kind of marginalized character that big stars weren ' t supposed to play . it would have been nice if their fine work had been seen by more people . but the real tragedy of the film isn ' t that it didn ' t do well at the box office , it ' s that so much promise can be seen in it from director steve ihnat , who sadly never got to evolve as a director beyond this second effort .

there also are a couple of interludes with a rich local indian girl who wants coburn , but he doesn ' t much want her . her character is completely unbelievable ( do even movie - style wicked women still say
i always get what i want
anymore ? ) , a sexist parody of the hot little rich girl . all of these things go wrong , and yet there ' s that relationship at the heart of the film between slim pickens and lois nettleton , and that goes right .
the story begins with lew lathrop ( coburn ) in a mobile home having a fling with a married woman while his best friend clete ( pickens ) waits outside in a pickup truck , ready to whisk him away on a moment ' s notice should the husband return home . he does , of course , and lew finds himself jumping out the window , rushing to the truck , and avoiding buckshot as clete drives him to safety . moments later , we learn he ' s going back to his hometown to reunite with his wife , linda ( nettleton ) , who wants nothing more than to divorce him . given what we just saw , it ' s no surprise .

the two characters most directly involved with lew , his best friend clete and estranged wife linda , are played superbly by both slim pickens and lois nettleton , respectively . pickens was already a bit of a legend in hollywood by that point but nettleton was relatively unknown except to tv audiences . she stayed in television for most of her career and won emmys for her excellent work twice . also of interest , a very young anne archer makes her movie debut as the little sister of a former friend of lew ' s , now all grown up and making the moves on her childhood crush .

the wife is played by lois nettleton , whose role is almost impossible to get right , and yet she does . she has to understand coburn , love him and yet retain her pride and her independence . she has a boy to raise , and there ' s a responsible man who loves her , and somehow she has to get all these things right in her life and yet not compromise too much .
( 1963 ) and looked as if he would become a marquee name . he did but not as big as expected . one reason for that was coburn ' s pesky habit of not choosing roles based on how much money he thought they might make but , rather , and rather unusual for a star in his day , how much they interested him . as a result , coburn made more
small
movies than most stars ever have or ever will . you might call coburn the first

paralympic judo is an adaptation of the japanese martial art of judo for visually impaired competitors .

the rules of the sport are only slightly different from regular judo competitions .

it has been part of the summer paralympics program since 1988 for men and 2004 for women .

paralympic judo

paralympic judo competition is open to male and female athletes who are blind / visually impaired .
