bates has been out of the military since 2002, and now works as an insurance agent. his incredible life experience does not end with '` my father.'' the man stands firmly on two feet despite suffering a disc problem last year, which usually results in one being confined to a wheelchair. he lives in arizona with his wife and nine - month - old son .
he is very polite and peaceful person. he never scolded me and takes my all mistakes very easily and makes me realise my all mistakes very politely. he is the boss of my family and helps each and every family member to take good decision in the bad time. he always shares his life drawbacks and achievements with me to let us know. he has his own business of online marketing but never force me to do go in the same field or attract me towards his own business instead he always promote to do what i want in my life. he is really a good dad not because he helps me but because of his knowledge, strength, helping nature and most importantly his way of handling people .
i have to say that it' ll be my first time to really love a weekend drama, i never even knew about something like weekend drama. but i love it !
` 'i went to see my father (last monday), but they wouldn' t let me, saying i' m not his real son.'' fortunately, before leaving korea in 2001, bates had listed his name under the family registrar. only when he presented the paperwork did the prison grant his visit. '` everything happens for a reason,'' he said .
first they killed my father also includes jolie’s 16 - year - old son maddox as an executive producer. maddox was born in cambodia and also had an uncredited role in brad pitt’s world war z as a zombie. “ [ she’s ] fun, funny, and easy to work with, ” maddox told people when asked what it was like to work with her mother. “she’s a wonder. ”
her war films aren’t strictly impersonal: insofar as her philanthropy is tied up in her persona, each of jolie’s films as a director is, in a way, “personal. ” furthermore, in the case of first they killed my father, jolie’s adopted son, maddox, is a descendant of this atrocity. it’s a worthy subject, one she cares deeply about. and it’s possible, seeing her celebrity in this context, that jolie’s instinct is mostly to make this kind of project while shying away from making movies about herself. however, on the evidence of her movies, she has much more to say about herself than about anything else. and that’s ok! first they killed my father may be jolie’s passion project; but by the sea is, by some margin, the more passionate one .
the day before, jolie' s latest directorial effort, the emotionally wrenching cambodian - genocide drama
first they killed my father ,
had its north american premiere at the telluride film festival. the crowd gave the film the kind of reception any director would dream of, with cheers and tears in equal measure, while critics took to twitter to proclaim it jolie' s best work as a director .
on its face ,
first they killed my father
— a child' s - eye view of the horrors of the brutal khmer rouge regime that claimed the lives of some 2 million cambodians — may seem an unlikely project for jolie to have tackled. the film is entirely in the khmer language and chronicles events that took place on the other side of the globe when she was just a toddler .
“i know they had their sort of spat but they actually get on really well. they have a hell of a lot of respect for each other, ” ferguson jr says. “in fact arsène is sorting out the tickets for my father for wednesday, so there you go. coming up against the manager is a great experience for me. he is a great manager and has had a fantastic career. ”

from that point on ,
first they killed my father
becomes a survival story about a suddenly powerless family doing whatever it takes to get through the day. their efforts are shadowed by the knowledge that not all of them will make it out alive, and that even outwardly unremarkable interactions could lead to the family being separated, imprisoned, brutalized or murdered. the early scenes of luong' s mother, father and siblings divesting themselves of most possessions (including some beloved dresses and toys) are all the more vivid for being underplayed. this dry - eyed reportage continues throughout the film, ratcheting up toward operatic or tragic heights only when loung is at her most distraught .

ung was 30 when she began talking to family members in cambodia and researching “first they killed my father: a daughter of cambodia remembers. ” and 17 years ago, when jolie visited cambodia for the first time to shoot “lara croft: tomb raider, ” she read ung’s memoir and looked her up, sharing her desire to adopt a cambodian child — who turned out to be her son maddox. they have been close friends ever since .
before the reunion the two corresponded through letters. bates knew his father was in prison, but it was en route to the reunion, at the gwangju train station, that he learned his father was on death row. '` it was shocking. yes, he is a murderer. but we have a story because of our situation. i want to emphasize, though, that (the movie) is not about him. it' s more about the relationship,'' he said .
my father is very kind - hearted person and my real hero and best friend. he always shares with me his all the bad an happy moments. he tells me that he discuss his all life events to me to give me experience and take right steps in the absence of him. he wants to make me a good person in the life and most importantly a successful person by following all the etiquettes, humanity and ethics of the life. he is the person who always helps the needy people in the society or anywhere on the way. he teaches me about how to get fit, healthy, happy and a peaceful person all through the life .
it' s a very good drama. specially the jh and my couple. its rating position is no. 1. but why didn' t i find this drama on dramafever or any popularity discussion ?
he is the good adviser in my family, every family member takes advice from him whenever they get problem. he is the head of the family and always takes first seat while eating food at dining table .

panh said today, “i am very happy, and very proud, that first they killed my father was selected by the cambodia oscar selection committee to represent cambodia. because the film is original and powerful. because thousands of us participated in the film’s making and so, too, in writing a chapter of cambodia’s collective history. and because this history doesn’t belong only to the cambodia people; it is universal. cinema also is a way to talk about the resilience and dignity of human beings. ”
angelina jolie is basking in a standing ovation at telluride after the first screening of “ first they killed my father. ” it’s the film she wanted to make: based on the 2000 memoir of loung ung, who was five when the khmer rouge forced her family into work camps, it required a $ 24 million budget, a 60 - day shoot, a two - hour, 16 - minute cut. the only place she pitched the film is the only one who would let her make it: netflix .
henri if it is really, this new make me very disappointed. i don' t want my actress to play in the family drama again. if it is family drama, i wish it will be like a five drama .
well made but frustratingly impersonal, first they killed my father is mired in a sense of respectful, admiring distance. it is almost entirely told from the perspective of ung herself, who’s 7 in the movie, and whose flashbacks throughout attempt to anchor the proceedings—which begin with her family being forcibly evacuated from their home in phnom penh, where ung’s father worked as a high - ranking government official—in some sense of who she is. but all the point - of - view shots in the world won’t add up to inner life or individual character without a more rigorous sense of who the subject is. and jolie’s film, despite its good intentions, has little sense of who the genocide’s victims are. it’s a movie that privileges the history of what happened over a sense of the people it was happening to .
he never thinks to be back in helping needy people and always ready to help them especially old people. he is my best friend and discusses my all problems. whenever i become fed up, he ask me the reason very peacefully and takes me to the top floor, let me sit in his side, keep his hand on my shoulder and discuss his own experiences of life, his faults an drawbacks including his success in order to make me realize that what i am doing wrong or right. he teaches us about ethics of the life and importance of elders and the life time. he tells us that we should never make any person unhappy in our life and always help needy people especially old people .
i do really enjoy watching this superb drama. . (except for kissing scene, well, call me hypocrite, but that' s my feeling in every kissing scene, such as another miss oh, jealousy incarnate and many more )
' my father is strange' has got to be one of the best, if not the best, family tv drama ever produced by kbs. i just love all the characters in the story! i mean they are just lovable and funny. i particularly love the leading couple of lee yu - ri and ryu soo - young. jung so - min is adorable and ryu hwa - young super cute (any kinship with soo - young ?) kudos to the scripwriters and the director for a seldom seen good tv show !
he is very nice person and helps my neighbours in their difficult time. he loves, cares and respects my mom always and never quarrel her. he always supports her and helps sometime in the kitchen during her illness. he respects and loves my grandparents and teaches us to care for them. he tells us that old people are like god for us, we should care, love and respect them. we should never avoid old persons in their difficult time as this time comes in everyone’s life once. he tells us that we should always help needy people of any age group all though the life according to our status. he takes 15 mins of us every day to tell us about the ethics and other good habits .
i' m still at ep 12 but im falling in love with every episode. lots of life lessons to learn from. even if i havent finished it yet, this is already on my toplist favorite! ! i really recommend it .

angelina jolie' s
first they killed my father
is far and away her best work as a director: a rare film about a national tragedy told through the eyes and mind of a child, and as fine a war movie as has ever been made. adapted by jolie and co - writer loung ung from ung' s memoir about her family' s experiences after the khmer rouge took over cambodia, it stands apart from most work in this vein not just because of what it does so well, but because of what it refuses to do .
“it was very hard to get things brought in, ” said jolie, “the equipment and moving things around. rithy never make me feel like he was looking over my shoulder. he was giving me what you would want, which is support. ”
kbs never fails to produce heartwarming sat & sun dramas! i think the only 50 - eps dramas that i bother to watch were all from kbs. from wang' s family, to what happens to my family, and now this. i could cry and laugh so hard in one episode. seriously not a single boring moment. even my mom loves this show although she watches a week behind since she watches it on kbs world. it' s tough not to spoil the drama to her lol .
luong' s story begins in relative peace, with the heroine and her bourgeois family, headed by a military police officer father (phoeung kompheak), in the capital, wondering what changes the end of the u. s. war will bring. the khmer rouge, a splinter of the vietnam people' s army of north vietnam led by future dictator pol pot, rolls into the city, crushing the remnants of the country' s weak official government and initiating a purge that would claim millions of lives. loung' s father sees the writing on the wall and leads his wife (sveng socheata) and children from the city .

i love this show. everything about it i love. best news i have heard is it getting two more episodes. wish it was more. favorite couple - jung so min and lee joon (of course). so fantastic. i am going to be soo sad when it ends. father fighting! !! !! !
while the most gripping aspect of the film is the father - son love between james and nam - cheol, the profound love in james' adopted family is equally touching. families take on many forms, but love transcends all, blood - related or not. the strong, family - like friendship between james and joseph is also heartfelt .
i' m hoping there' s a season 2 for this drama and the players have to stay, because it' s the same way of all the players in this drama, iki is the best family drama i' ve ever seen. good job is always for the crew and the players. i love all father is strange .

loved the ending, so romantic and happy, wanted so bad to be at that wedding. so no doubt this is the best 50 + drama ever! starring my most favorite actors, lee joon & jung so min i had to watch it and so glad i did. made me laugh, cry and sigh with the story line. and just fell in love with every character. thanks & congratulations to the most awesome writers, cast and crew in producing the best ever drama! this one is going straight to my library to watch again & again .
ferguson’s willingness to admit to taking a wrong turn shows an intelligence and determination that may be key in fulfilling his ambition of managing in the premier league. “it is a real challenge, ” he says. “the advice i always got was: ‘don’t be a manager’ – with my old man having done what he’s done. but i don’t see it like that. i’m never going to be as good as my dad, that’s the bottom line. no one is. the actual success he had is a good thing because there’s no point comparing. there’s no comparisons .
` 'growing up, i was blessed in everything. it was just like being part of a (normal) family... when you love someone so much you don' t see what their eyes, skin color are like. i' ll never get rid of my skin color, my eyes… but if someone' s really that keen about it, it bothers them, then i just don' t associate with them. those people are biased and they have their own prison _ they can' t look outside the box,'' he said .
1 family drama, # 1 drama for 2017 (all my opinion), wish this drama to get the award - winning for all above & the actors and actresses for an outstanding performances. lee joon, kim y - c, kim h - s, lee y - r, yyu s - y & all under the umbrella of this loving storytelling thank you all for a great life experience what

deaf and mute since having his hearing knocked out at the age of 12, asher has been training for almost two decades to avenge himself on ivan, the man that killed his older brother, 21 years ago. and now that his nemesis is out of prison, he gets his chance. but asher' s target also happens to be his father .
this drama is really good! but one thing i don' t understand is why complicate things when the father was never really a criminal (he was innocent and all), they make a fuss like he realh did a crime when he didn' t. it' s a shame for not making the characters more open minded on some certain episodes .
the most remarkable thing about first they killed my father is how quiet it is. angelina jolie’s film—about the khmer rouge regime that killed one quarter of the population of cambodia between the years of 1975 and 1979—is based on a memoir by human - rights activist loung ung, who was 5 years old when the khmer rouge came to power. jolie runs with this premise, telling the story of a people through the eyes of a little girl. as a result, the film is an impressionistic, fragmented, sometimes slow affair, one that interweaves tragic and disturbing moments with quiet and hopeful ones. and, by and large, the artistic strategy pays off .
i love this drama so much... n would love to meet the cast someday... especially i get crazy watching the chemistry between lee joon and jung so min... if ever i meet them i would freakingling hug lee hoon for so acting so well... . mmmuuuuaaahhh to lee joon... .. is their anyway to send gifts to the cast of my father is strange... can anybody give me the address to send gifts from india... . i hope there are more episodes... just keep rolling guys... . please don' t end the show ...
though it' s safe to say that
first they killed my father
is not a film that most hollywood studios would have jumped at the idea of making, netflix agreed early on to back it .
it is true that this type of film would be difficult to make at a major studio because it it lacks star power and is in a foreign language ,
said scott stuber, who oversees netflix' s growing slate of original feature films .
we are fortunate because, for us, we have over 100 million members around the world who have unique and diverse tastes, and we have seen the power of good storytelling traveling globally .
update, writethru after sunday 11: 01 pm exclusive: angelina jolie ’s first they killed my father has been set as the cambodian submission for the best foreign language film oscar. deadline reported late sunday night that confirmation of the selection was imminent, and early monday morning the cambodia oscar selection committee made it official. the netflix title, directed and co - written by jolie, is about author and human rights activist loung ung’s life under the rule of the deadly khmer rouge. it premiered in telluride and then went on to toronto where it won strong praise. the story is told through ung’s eyes, from the age of five, when the khmer rouge came to power .
life lessons: never watch a 52 episode awesome family drama with awesome casts when your exams are near. i was binge watching this every single day! so addictive and the story was portrayed so beautifully. my fav couple: lee joon and jung so min... the chemistry was just there .

wow super love this drama and all the actors too. waiting / anticipating for the coming weeks episode. this the second 50 eps drama i' ve watched after wolgyesu tailor shop and all i can say is my time watching this drama is worth it since its simply the best. . heart, heart. .
first they killed my father: a daughter of cambodia remembers, which debuted on netflix on friday, is jolie’s fourth turn behind the camera as a feature film director and her third as a chronicler of war. her first, which she also wrote and produced, was in the land of blood and honey (2011), a romantic drama set in sarajevo amid the bosnian war. the next was 2014’s unbroken —another war drama, this time chronicling olympian louis zamperini’s time as a pow in japan after surviving at sea on a raft for 47 days. these projects are ambitious, well - chosen, and a little boring. her new film, which is the best of the three, nevertheless furthers that trend .
jolie’s movie typically sees those victims as a huge anonymous mass of roving refugees. clustered together as families, these people are, for the most part, unlikely to survive. otherwise, they’re the soldiers themselves, who are indistinct by choice: the angkar, the ruling party of communist rebels, did not believe in individuality. but everyone else did. hence the dissatisfaction of peering into a face like ung’s when the movie reduces her to a silent witness. she’s a little girl who stands in for many—too many. and her immediate family—four siblings, her mother, and her father—are equally indistinct. they have no character, no ideas, no experiences beyond their pain. this is fiction filmmaking that, despite occasionally feverish editing and a few gracefully askew shots, nevertheless aspires to documentary plainness. no amount of jumpy impressionism—one of jolie’s more tired stylistic ticks as a director—distracts from the bland predictability of the movie’s ethics. first they killed my father is, adamantly, a film that believes that by merely documenting atrocities through the eyes of those who witnessed them, it can also, automatically, sell itself as a movie about those witnesses.
