    Smelling the poor and sour smell of the Jin driver's family, the lust aroused, probably everyone is "dirty" in their bones. Just like the current movie fans watching Duoai literary films, they are all climaxing for genre films in their...

    It's a comedy in general, with a family from the bottom peeking out of a big posh house, and it's full of irony at the same time. The core shows the gap between the rich and the poor (the Korean directors have been very similar in the past two years), and also teases the relationship between South Korea and North Korea and South Korea and the United States. Undoubtedly, it was the most entertaining commercial film at the Art Film Festival, and it was full of applause and cheers in the middle of...

    If you are smart and deceived, you will think of Lubitsch; if you occupy a magpie's nest, you will think of Joseph Rossi; when conflicts always explode, you will think of Claude Chabrol. The three masterpieces of famous directors have very different styles, but they have one thing in common: the stories are believable. The advantage of resourcefulness comes from professional proficiency. You have to be a professional cheating charismatic thief who has committed many crimes. You will take the...

    Thinking of Xiangzi pulling a car in the rainstorm and making him unable to walk, but the employer who was sitting in the awning urged Xiangzi to hurry up and run Lao She wrote: The rain goes to the rich, but also to the poor; to the righteous, to the poor righteous people. In fact, the rain is not fair, because it falls on a world without justice. This is the same rain as the rain in the movie. Maybe this film is suitable enough as a symbolic social fable, but in reality, people in these two...

    Such hypocritical and unreliable films can win the Palme d’Or, but only when commercial films win in an all-round way, the market for arthouse films is getting smaller and smaller, and the audience’s taste is getting worse and worse. The movie version of black mirror can be a big hit in the arthouse. It's not a movie, it's a sketch at...

    The most awesome thing about this film is that at first glance, it seems that the evil of the poor is naked, while the rich family is a little innocent. But if you look more carefully, you will find that the flawless hypocrisy and indifference of the rich are the stone that weighs down on their family. The family is unaware of a poor man who has lived in his basement for a few years, and the last scene is desperate for the poor, and this is not the reality of...

    There are obviously many "poor people" who are down-to-earth and work hard. No stealing, no robbing, and no cheating. Even though I sometimes encounter injustice, I still insist on it. Even if I want to vent my anger, I rely on my own efforts to break the discrimination. Lies, doesn't follow the right path, doesn't do their job well, and takes advantage of others. What qualifications do such "poor people" have to talk about discrimination? Are the so-called poor people who want to take...

    Very entertaining, South Korea's film industry is quite mature. But there are two problems, 1-I don't trust the audience very much (it's a headache, but it's not really important to think about it now), 2-I don't want to explain who is a parasite in this society (this is very...

    It is acceptable to use modern fables to explain all the coincidences and inconsistencies, and it is slightly more acceptable to use the three words of commercial films to explain. From the beginning of the film, the characters and destiny have been forcibly prescribed, and all the confusion and doubts, even if they are completely contrary to real experience and moral stance, cannot prevent them from rolling forward. Kindness and money, poverty and scoundrel, all lumped together, turned into an...

Parasite quotes

  • Ki-taek: [message to Ki-woo] Perhaps you, if no one else, will be able to read this. You were a Scout, so I'm writing this just in case. Have your injuries healed? I'm sure your mother is plenty healthy. I'm doing fine in here. Though thinking of Ki-jung makes me cry. Even now, what happened that day doesn't seem real. It feels like a dream, and yet it doesn't. That day as I went out the gate, I suddenly knew where I needed to go. A house where such a grisly thing took place would surely not be easy to sell. I've struggled to hold on in this empty house. Still, thanks to the house being empty - what was her name, Moon-gwang? - I was able to give her a proper send off. I hear treeside burials are trendy. So hell, I did my best. Those real estate sharks sure are clever. They duped some people who had just arrived in Korea and managed to sell the house. With the parents working and the kids attending school, the family is usually out. But the damned housekeeper stays here 24 hours a day. Each time I go upstairs, I take my life into my hands. And it turns out Germans eat more than just sausage and beer. What a relief. Passing the time down here, everything starts to go hazy. Today at least, I was able to write you this letter. If I send out the letter this way every night, maybe someday you'll see it. So long.

  • Kim Ki-woo: [narrates] Opening my eyes for the first time in a month, I saw a detective who looked nothing like a detective. Then the doctor who looked nothing like a doctor spoke. Even when I heard how much Ki-jung bled that day... even when I heard the words "forgery", "trespassing", "foul play", "murder", and that we were lucky to get away with probation... even when I finally got to see Ki-jung's face, I kept laughing. Though when I went back and watched the news reports, I didn't laugh.
