What would be the first movie that you showed to a person that had just escaped from North Korea?
Keep in mind that the country he's lived in his entire life is essentially a time machine back to the 1930's Soviet Union.

He's likely seen movies before, they have them, they just have to watch them in secret
Where are you getting this?
that's amazing
Tbh Bruce Almighty wouldnt be my first choice but its a good movie for someone who just escaped hell, its light and funny, got some good scenes, you can daydream about Jennifer Aniston. /comfy/ out of 10
Not him, but I saw this in a documentary on Netflix a few years ago. People would smuggle flash drives with 1st world pop culture on them into the country from china.
on my usb flash drive
I've been there. We have a Swedish - Korean travel agency and while traversing the border on train some handball coach smuggled hundreds of DVDs into the country under our seats.
Korea itself reminds me more of the 1950s rather than some 30s Soviet Union and we were basically treated like celebreties by the local population. Everyone was interested in you because you were a westerner and they all gave us such warm smiles. It's nothing like the media portrays it like, even though they all live with a gun to the head they're all happy and enjoying life way more than most western people I know.
>flash drives
and they smuggle usb's in their asshole
do they know they're living with a gun to their head? I heard the propaganda about the outisde world being worse is prevalent so maybe they don't know how bad they really have it.
The Kims have been smuggling in their favorite movies and pop culture and just saying its North Korean to their population for years
>watches Bruce Almighty and Transformers
>immediately puts the bullets and parasites back inside himself and runs back to Best Korea to escape the torture
If it came from china wouldn't it just be cheap bootleg with 1/4 of the movie missing?
and have chinese subtitles
The Dark Knight Rises but unironically
wouldn't a person who had just escaped a hellhole want something more...uplifting? Hell he should watch a pixar movie or something.
Okay then just the plane scene.
Would make him watch some sci-fi and tell him this is the world outside of NK.
Team America
Mad Max Fury Road is Australia
Team America
>not the Lord of the Rings
Yeah. Bruce Almighty just seems so random. There are better movies about God out there to show to someone that had just escaped an atheist society.
looks like a comedy central sketch
baby mama
y
american here, this documentary tells the truth
Superman Returns.
Those are both good films you contrarian faggot.
Gran Turismo
Fantasia and Toy Story
wouldn't those be hard to relate to?
Fantasia idk, but maybe you are right on Toy Story...
I would try some animation or children movie, to be easier to understand
Taxi Driver
>tfw no snow on the ground so no coffee
It's 1000 times worse than 130s USSR because all NK is under control and you can't do shit to avoid punishment.
>tfw cant even afford snow to eat.
America sucks
Porn
...
still, being able to watch it in the open...I'd have cried, man.
NKbro's going to be in bed for a bit, won't be able to see much beyond those hospital walls so we'll put on Planet Earth, Blue Planet, and their sequels
looks acurate to me
There are some youtube videos on Nork escapees
those are good choices
This has to be a joke
it is
The Truman show.
The Matrix
It would have to be a kids movie. Maybe finding nemo or something
plane scene on 10 hour loop
>north korea
>communism
Is there anyone over 16 that actually thinks this?
it was part of the USSR so....
every single communist society devolves to totalitarianism eventually anyway
The ussr wasnt communism either.
>Government controls countries economy and businesses. Only free market in place is illegal black market
What do you think communism is, kiddo?
The Matrix, The Truman Show, V for Vendetta
>CCCP
>not communist

He should go back by now.

SWEDEN YES
Coming to America is the only acceptable choice. The nork will really be able to identify with it.

No you dolt, the black market foe Hollywood movies is huge in NK.
sorry, soyboys. am I cool now?
Bruce Almighty is a good choice because it's pretty funny, but
>Transformers
You don't show him the best movies first, that's for sure.
Bruce Almighty and Transformers are actually perfect for gradual integration. Transformers gets him used to special effects with a mediocre but easily understandable plot. Bruce Almighty gets him used to modern comedy sensibilities and urban life.
He's a malnourished North Korean. Chances are his favorite movie is going to be something terrible but wholesome like Patch Adams.
If you want a poignant answer, then the Truman Show is your answer.
Antz would be perfect.
Why would they not show him South Korean films?
Swefag here. NK sounds like a cool place to visit. Too bad you're under constant surveillance so you can't sneak off and score super cheap nork pussy.
Modern Times
>Zeitgeist
>Die Hard
>though they all live with a gun to the head they're all happy and enjoying life way more than most western people I know.
it's that bad in sweden eh?
don't mind him. he's commiefag
>THAT WASNT REAL COMMUNISM
>IT COULD WORK
>mfw its a double cross
>the drives are provided to the north to be infected with malware
>then smuggled back out and onto internet connected devices
Other swefag here. Loads of people here are depressed. Consumerism, social media, the pressure to make a good career. Idk, I think people are very lonely and lost. North Koreans don't have much but I think they have a feeling of belonging and solidarity that Westerners lack.
There are actually a lot of hollywood movies smuggled into NK and pretty much everyone there has seen classics like Die Hard and James Bond.
Well, it was more enjoyable than JUST league.
Goodbye Lenin
1984
>hospital shows him Bruce Almighty and Transformers while he's recovering
I'm amazed he didn't get up out of the hospital bed and walk right back across the border
Shawshank Redemption
The Matrix
Basically any movie about escaping, tho maybe that's bad reasoning to assume a man would want to watch a movie about a situation similar to him.
I show him his hospital bill
Castaway On The Moon
Bad Boys II
Transformers I
The Rock
Fast Five
>Transformers
>actually falling for the tailor-made propaganda experience they give foreigners to make it look like everyone's happy
Idiot.
You dont need to sneak off. Theyd take your money and genes. Native white boys, even halfies, would be good for their propaganda videos.
Seriously, what the fuck were they thinking? Those are shitty movies to pick even if we assume this is a guy who was watching smuggled-in movies while in NK, because it's just the kind of wide-appeal children's crap he would have already had access to. Either show him something new that wouldn't have made it in, or some old classics that aren't new enough to have been smuggled in.
Come to think of it, do they have viewings of Citizen Kane in NK? It seems like the kind of movie they'd show to deride capitalism.
