had heard of "Parasite" a long time ago, and only knew it was a great movie, but had never watched it.
Until recently, more and more news on the Internet was given to "Parasite". In this year's Oscar, "Parasite" won four Oscar awards: Best Picture Award and Best Director Award, Best Original Screenplay Award, Best Foreign Language Film Award. You know, this is the first time in history that the best Oscar film has been given to a non-English film. Ang Lee's "Fantasy Drifting of the Junior School", which was once world-renowned, only won the Oscar for Best Director and Oscar for Best Soundtrack.
Even South Korean President Moon Jae-in hosted a banquet for the creator of "Parasite" at the Blue House. U.S. President Trump, who has always had a lot of drama, couldn't help but slapped the heat, commenting on "Parasite", saying: "How bad is this year's Oscar? It was a Korean movie that won the award." So I was curious. Zeng, want to see what is so amazing about this blown up movie.
Before watching the movie, I thought in my heart that this might be a disaster film about human parasites. It turned out to be wrong. The film tells the story of the poor family of Ki Ze's family living in the home of the rich family President Park. However, until I finished reading the entire first half, I didn't think that the poor Keizers were parasites. They are called scammers at best—getting a good job by improper means.
Until the scene in the basement was unfolded, I finally felt that this is the real parasite. The climax of the whole story is obviously in the second half. All kinds of unexpected reversals and fierce conflicts are fully displayed in the second half. Especially at the end of the film, Keize unexpectedly killed the male employer President Park.
said it was unexpected, but it is also reasonable. A special smell is repeatedly mentioned in the film. To put it bluntly, this is the smell of poor people living in a messy environment. The smell can be smelled on the overcrowded subway. The scene of President Park holding his nose and going to the key completely angered Keize, who was out of control and took a fruit knife angrily and pierced President Park’s chest.
President Park died, and Keize fled, abandoning the daughter lying in a pool of blood, the son who was seriously injured and unconscious, and the wife covered in blood.
President Park really sinned to death? Just because he told his wife in private that Keize had that strange smell on his body, did he end up like this? I really think President Park is wronged!
Contempt for the poor by the rich class? Sorry! I really think the attitude of the rich class in this family is very good. If they really have contempt, it is also extremely slight.
Look at the personality of President Park.
First, the daughter of Ki Ze came to teach her son for the first time, and President Park arranged for the driver to take her home.
Second, as the wife of a full-time wife, she is not good at washing and cooking. But he still loves her. Most importantly, he is not a widowed husband. For his son who behaved abnormally, he accompanied his son crazy. He didn't forget about his son's company because of successful career and busy work.
Third, President Park treats the servants at home with a cordial and polite attitude.
Fourth, even if he doesn't like the smell of Keize, did he tell him in person? It was just talking to his wife in private, and his tone did not make me feel despised. Just ask you, like us, when we squeeze the subway, facing the sour smell in the car, won't we frown and pinch our noses? For the rich, why are there double standards?
After talking about President Park, let’s take a look at how the Kisawa family does it?
First, Ki-woo, Kize’s son, got this good tutoring job because of the recommendation of a good friend. How did a good friend tell him before going abroad? He was asked to help take care of his students, because he likes this girl and hopes that the girl will associate with the girl after she goes to college. This is equivalent to a "friend's wife"! Don't bully your friend's wife! In the end, he did well and kissed the girl the second time. Moreover, from the later behavior, his love for girls is also mixed with great benefits.
Second, Kize’s daughter Ji Ting, including the Kize family, in order to drive away the former housekeeper, took out their killer weapon-peach. Because the former housekeeper is allergic to peaches. You know, allergies are big or small illnesses, and it can kill people if they don't. Have they thought about this? I just want to do everything possible to get the former housekeeper away.
Third and finally, are they satisfied after they got a good job by deception? not at all! They didn't act honestly because they got a good job and a good income, but fantasized more. Ki Woo is thinking of getting his students by means and becoming the son-in-law of President Park.
In my opinion, the actions of President Park’s family are many times better than those of Kize’s family, okay? But the final result? President Park is dead. Although Ji Ting died too, but Ji Woo was hit by a big rock twice and was still alive. He had neither dementia nor madness, and was still fine. Keeze killed someone, hid in the basement, and escaped the blame.
Is it really like what Keize’s wife said? "If I have money, I can also be kind." Does it mean that the poor deserve sympathy for doing bad things, and the rich take for granted that doing good things? wrong! I seriously disagree: kindness is built on economic foundation! To be human, each of us should be kind! No matter whether we are poor or not, there is no reason why we become bad!
