Synopsis Falsely accused as the m urderer of my own h usband... Oh, th e cruel machinations of fat e! A female teacher ( Lee Yong-ae) gives shelter to an escaped convict, but her hu sband, mi sconstruing h er intentions, reacts vi olently and acci dentall y stabs himself to death in t he pr ocess. The t eacher is charged with her husband's murder, bu t fortunately the prosecutor on the case is a former student of hers, of w hom s he had taken painstaking care when s he was working at an elementary sc hool. Rememb ering her ki ndness to h im, the prosecuto r uncovers her innocence in co urt, and she is acquitted of the crime . Notes A silent movie that allows us to examine the narrator-acc ompanied method of 16mm films (Chun g Jong-wha) A Publi c Prosecutor and a Teacher is familiar to us for the performance of Shin Ch ool, Korea's las t silent m ovie narrato r (known as byeonsain Korean). Numerous critics have r ecommended the fi lm, prais ing it as a sil ent movie tha t allows us to examine the na rrator-accompanied method of 16mm fi lms (Chung Jong-wha) , the work of Korea's last silent m ovie narrat or (Kim Hong-joon), a m ovie that reflects th e public 's co nsciousness and has great historical value (Lee Seung-hun), a nd the arc hetypal n ew-sc hool film (Chun g Su ng-il). As evi denced by such com mentar y, A Public Prosecuto r and a Teacher enjoys greater recognition for its historical value as the only surviving silent movie in Korea than for its art istic or tec hnical aspects. What is ironic i s the fact that this recogni tion derivesfrom a production and screening meth od that f ell behind the times, as sound fi lms (or talkies) had already become the no rm when the movie was first made. Its i nclusion i n the list is ther efore ba sed on its historic al, social context r ather than on t he film itself. After word - Narrated by S hin Chool, who is known as Korea's last silent film na rrator, A Pub lic Prosecuto r and a Teacherhas been screened at several film fe stivals since the latter half of t he 1990s.
