'Decision to Leave' has become Mubi's most-streamed movie in North America.
Days after Mubi reported that director Charlotte Wells’ debut feature Aftersun had become its most-streamed film globally, the arthouse streamer/distributor has revealed that Korean auteur Park Chan-wook’s kooky detective thriller Decision to Leave has become its most-streamed film in North America.
Mubi was secretive about the actual viewership figures, but Deadline reported that Decision to Leave has overtaken titles such as Lars Von Trier’s The Kingdom and Terrence Malick’s Voyage Of Time. The Cannes hit is also the streamer’s top-performing title on North American transactional platforms. Additionally, Decision to Leave has delivered Park’s best North American box office despite playing in only 169 screens at its peak. The film will soon get a re-release in the U.S. and the U.K.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Decision to Leave stars Tang Wei and Park Hae-il as a grieving widow and the grizzled detective investigating her husband’s suspicious death, respectively. Over the course of the twisted investigation, the detective develops feelings for the woman, who also happens to be the prime suspect in the case. Directed with typical visual flair by Park, the film’s psychosexual, Hitchcockian tone was widely acclaimed by critics.
The film did, however, secure four nods at this year’s BAFTA awards, including Best Director for Park. The filmmaker was an instrumental part of the Korean new wave, which began at the turn of the millennium and was defined by films from directors such as Kim Ji-woon and Bong Joon-ho. He’s best known for his Vengeance trilogy of thrillers — Oldboy, Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance, and Lady Vengeance.
Park is now directing Robert Downey Jr. in HBO’s adaptation of Viet Thanh Nguyen’s novel The Sympathizer. You can watch a trailer for the film here, and stay tuned to Collider for more updates.
