is in the semi-basement. Because of bankruptcy, he lives in the Jin family on the ground floor, and lives by folding pizza boxes. The instability of life allows them to cling to the rich by chance. This is the beginning of the story of the poor and the rich.
is a very unique style of criticism film. "Parasite" is a metaphor for the vassalization of poor families to rich families. It is a criticism of class consolidation and wealth inequality.
In the gentrification of the middle class, the urban "rejuvenation" of low-income communities, rising prices and housing prices, and employment insecurity, etc., under these surreal social backgrounds, the broadcast of "Parasite" has been played in Korea and even internationally Aroused a huge response.
Some people think that this movie is an infinite sympathy for the bottom people. It captures the sadness and helplessness of the bottom people. Others think that it is a reflection on the bottom people. Although the way this low-level family seizes the opportunity has deeply pierced our hearts. But in terms of human nature, this insurmountable class divide is, in the final analysis, a fight of desire.
Spiritual narrowness has led to the alienation of “parasitic”
In 2016, the “Taiwanese taste” cake shop, which was a smash hit in South Korea, opened hundreds of shops in just eight months, which attracted many people. Invested in this store one after another. However, it quickly closed down because of the explosion of additional chemicals.
This is a social background involved in the movie. The director puts the Golden Driver's family under the background of such a failure in entrepreneurship. On the one hand, it highlights the hardships of the bottom people's life, and on the other hand, it has reached consistency with the narrative style in the portrayal of the characters.
In the movie, it is not only Driver Kim’s family who have such a life background, but also President Park’s former nanny. Why did the director make such arrangements? In addition to metaphorizing the social environment, there is also to show humanity.
Before Kim's family became the "parasites" of President Park's family, the nanny and his husband had been parasitic here for four years. Facing the dark living environment, they not only lost their fighting spirit, but also thanked President Park for giving this opportunity to "survive in the cracks".
This is the end of the parasite! Throughout the film, the lives of the nanny and his husband are the fate of the Golden Driver's family. But how can the Jin family, who are so tempted by greed, be willing to have this kind of "upper person" illusion. After the secrets of
were discovered by each other, the two had a confrontation! They all want to suppress each other with the little sense of superiority left on the "rich". This is also the biggest contradiction in the film that pushes the story to a climax.
"parasitic" is a derogatory term, which is a kind of cannibalization of "host". From the point of view of the class polarization that the director has ridiculed, the Golden Driver’s family is at best using scams to seek "exploited" opportunities. But at the end of the film, "Parasite" was alienated and President Park was killed. "Jiyizhuan" is really not just a little bit of light from the "rich". The cowardice and humbleness in the bones are a disease of poverty that cannot be shaken off.
We often say that the more we desire something, the more we want to show off! The narrowness of the spirit will be infinitely magnified under the filling of vanity. The more pleasant the appearance, the more lacking in the heart. The psychological phenomenon behind this is the deviation of self-cognition-I don't know I don't know!
2000 years ago, the ancient Greeks carved "know yourself" on the doorpost of the Parthenon. The ancient Greeks believed that "knowing yourself" is the only way to be wise and avoid disaster. Give this sentence to Driver Jin, and he won't care about President Park's opinion, let alone point the dagger at his employer.
Under structural violence in society, the superiority of the rich is a poison. In the movie
, there is a very contrasting scene:
lives in the semi-basement all the year round, and the Golden Driver family looks up at the ground. There are often drunks standing in the corner to urinate, and the smell will increase in summer, but the family chose to forbear. Wait for themAfter President Park’s family took office, their attitudes obviously changed. Faced with the drunk’s harassment again, the son bravely confronted him.
is because the waist is straight after having a job? Obviously not. After linking with the rich, they have a sense of superiority in the rich. Just like in the first scene, as a good friend of rich people and college students, driving away drunks, their sense of superiority also gives them the opportunity to override the bottom. Therefore, the Golden Driver's family is not after money, but superiority.
After entering the home of President Park, the Kim family gradually entered the role of the rich, but the "smell" has become a label for the poor. Driver Kim couldn't stand the discrimination of President Park. This feeling of being overwhelmed by the superiority of the rich was really uncomfortable. Driver Jin began to resist, and the director used "cross-boundary" to render here.
Jin driver asked President Park about the relationship between husband and wife twice. He did not understand that this was a cross-border, but he just wanted to use the only "love" in the poor to laugh at the rich, but he did not expect to disappoint himself. The rich not only have money, power, but also love. Having said that, we can understand very well the meaningful look in Driver Kim when he is playing an Indian. This is also the direct cause of his inner collapse and killing his employer.
Under social structural violence, the superiority of the rich is a poison. It gives the poor a reason to chase, but in the end it all becomes a phantom. What is the feeling of superiority? It is just pursuing sensory stimulation and an unruly vulgar culture. It just allows us to vassalize our own desires.
The rich President Park is like this, and so is the poor Golden Driver. Indulgence is the nature of human beings, but life is to overcome nature and move forward.
has washed away the lead, what is the difference in the nature of human beings: Is this the obscenity of the bottom people or the confession of fate? There is also an image object in this movie-stone, which can be said to run through the main line of the entire narrative. Finally, after the son learned of his father's whereabouts, he put the stone in the water. He found that the stone was just a stone, and there was no difference.
At the end of the film, the blank treatment is the same, leaving the audience with unlimited imagination. Some people say that the son is really let go, and some people point directly to the class contradiction in society, which is a kind of despair that cannot change the destiny.
"Parasitic" ending, can only be exhausted? In fact, it is not. This kind of dependent survival relationship seems to have become the norm in society, and we are inevitably in it, just like the parasitic atmosphere is everywhere in "Parasite". It is not just a parasitic of the lower class on the upper class, but also exists between husband and wife, between lovers, and between companies.
President Park’s wife does not have a job, and is dependent on her husband in every way. This is a parasitic relationship between fish and water; Duohui can’t help falling in love with Kim Driver’s son because of his parents’ preference, emotional sustenance, Isn't it a parasitic to another person? President Park's company is a multinational company, and its original accumulation comes from the United States. Doesn't money also rely on parasitic means?
What does the director want to tell us? No matter what class we are in, we have the right to look up to the stars! Although class is difficult to cross, it is the human heart that is even more difficult to cross.
We keep our heart and crawl on our own track. Although it is hard, we have a rich heart.foot. What can be worthy of inner abundance and long-lasting pleasure? The Golden Driver family has no shortage of survival skills, and all of them are very smart. They may be able to create their own happiness in their own small world, but they can be driven by desire and gradually sink.
The greatest success of "Parasite" is that it reveals to us a phenomenon in which everyone can read the different meanings of "parasite" from its story. Of course, he also revealed to us the biggest problem in the current society. The gap between the rich and the poor is gradually increasing. This seems to be a global problem, so it has aroused the resonance of more people.
, as a small ant living at the bottom, can hardly shake the contradictions of the solidification of the class. He can only control his desires and strive to grow in his own class.
