The Center for Korean Studies fall film series features a screening of Miss Granny芒鈧(矛藛藴矛茠聛铆鈥⑴ 锚路赂毛鈥︹偓), a 2014 film directed by Hwang Donghyuk. The fall series, "Late Blossoms: Old Age in Korean Cinema," offers recent films with an upbeat take on old age. In Miss Granny, the central character is a seventy-four-year-old widow living with her son and his family. She has a difficult relationship with her daughter-in-law, but is proud of her son, whom she reared by herself. On the day her son tells her she will be sent to a nursing home, she wanders the streets in distress and comes across a mysterious photo studio claiming to capture one芒鈧劉s youth. She has her photo taken, thinking it will be her last portrait for her funeral, but as she leaves the studio, she is dumbfounded by her reflection in a mirror. Now a fresh, twenty-year-old woman, she hides from her family and changes her name.
