Almost a year has passed. I only watched this movie a few days ago. Sure enough, I am not a qualified filmmaker, but I will make up for it here and write some superficial views on this film.

When this movie just won the Oscars, in fact, US President Trump was very upset. Because the political policy he advocates is the principle of the United States first. Therefore, he believes that no matter how American movies have been in recent years, they should be given priority to the United States.

Trump

But what I need to remind everyone here is that Trump is not a person who knows nothing about movies. He has appeared in many excellent movies, such as "Home Alone" which we are most familiar with.

Mainland China translates the movie "Parasite" into a parasite, while Taiwan translates it into "Parasite High." From the perspective of the name, the mainland translation is more subtle, while the Taiwan poster translation is more straightforward.

According to the name of the movie "Parasite", it is easy to produce a series of associations. For example: Who are the parasites? Who is the parasite on?

Parasitic Life

This movie, most people will associate him as a movie with a class color, I have to say that Korean movies are very realistic. Bong Junhao can make a very thoughtful movie in response to the class contradictions in the current society.

Director Bong Junho

remembers that the first time he saw Bong Junho’s movie was "Memories of Murder", the last scene of the movie said that those who are truly murderous are people who have very friendly daily lives.

and the film "Parasite" is more like a microcosm of a society, the film describes the living environment of some people at the bottom of this society. They struggled to get rid of the predicament in their lives, but they had no choice but to live in this mezzanine society in a very embarrassing situation.

But in this film, I do not want to criticize the human nature under the social system. And I want to talk about the character image analysis of my movie.

Before the character analysis, I learned that some people have not seen this movie, so I simply drew a character relationship diagram.

Take President Park’s family as the core relationship diagram. The story of

tells the story of a wealthy family with two low-level families, and the two low-level families kill each other because of conflicting interests, thus persecuting the rich families. The only way for the poor to get information is to go to the toilet and rub other people's WiFi.

The character of the characters is the highlight of this film.

In this movie, from a macro perspective, there are two kinds of personalities, collectively referred to as the character of the poor and the character of the rich. Most of the poor are affected by the environment, are naturally sensitive, have strong self-esteem, and even weak. And the rich grow up wantonly in the environment of Zhongxingpengyue, and most of them are arrogant.

For example: in the video there are several fragments about taste. President Park said: "Driver Kim is good, but there is a smell in him.I smelled it when I was on the subway. "Then there were multiple scenes of President Park and Mrs. Park covering their noses.

. Those poor people were all suspicious of themselves without exception. This is obviously the taste of the poor, it is the cramped dark basement. They may not be able to change this taste in their lives.

President Park and Mrs. Park

President Park are similar to the patriarchs of a top-level society. He pays attention to his reputation and despise the people at the bottom. He is the first to discover The Jin family who has this unique unpleasant smell (the son finds the same smell), he feels inexplicably disgusted with this smell.

and this kind of smell appears many times in the movie, not in the full sense. To talk about the discomfort that this smell brings to President Park, but to talk about the incompatibility between the two classes. They test each other, but they dare not to tear their skins fundamentally.

President Park in the film Three-quarters, there are indescribable scenes with his wife. President Park played it in the movie. I really want to see you wearing cheap underwear. In fact, this is revealing the last scene.

They seem to be I was pretending to play the trick of the former driver and the woman dating a gun. But here I suddenly thought that President Park really minded that the former driver would fight someone else in his car?

In fact, I personally think it is not. He accepts one. The man fired a gun, but what he couldn’t accept was that the driver fired a gun in his seat. He didn’t want his position to be replaced, let alone someone sitting in his seat. Moreover, even if the former driver fired a gun, he would also wear a People in cheap underwear shoot guns. This is something Mr. Park can’t accept.

and Mrs. Park is very kind, even a bit silly. Listening to the wind is the wind, listening to the rain is the rain. She loves herself very much. But she doesn’t understand her own child, although she has some pride in her bones. For example, in the movie screen, when Kim Ki-woo first visited Mrs. Park’s home, he saw Kim Ki-woo’s forged resume. Say I don’t care about your resume at all.

is actually a bit of a hooliganism. It’s very similar to the contemporary Fortune 500 and China’s top 500 companies. We don’t care about resumes, only your abilities. Then we went to Peking University. Admissions at Tsinghua University. Can’t help but be jealous.

Kim Ki-zee and Chung-sook

Kim Ki-zek is a representative figure of the bottom society, he has this kind of bottom, the taste of the poor is the most important.

Therefore, every time I say this kind of smell, it almost comes from him. He didn't want to change his view of his situation at all. When the whole family was parasitic in the rich family, they could have changed their residence, but they did not. Instead, I just went to a place similar to a food stall and had a big meal.

He has the strongest sense of frustration and self-denial. Later, when he was pretending to be an Indian, he would rise up to resist.

is similar to that when the American New World was discovered, the Indians rose up to attack. He was originally a very cowardly person. But when his woman was hacked and killed, he finally couldn't restrain his inner anger.

He compares himself to a cockroach-like creature. When it gets dark, get up and steal food. Hiding in a hole at dawn. So that in the end he would hide in the basement of the rich man's house after killing someone.

Zhongshu is a person who seems to have made no mistakes from beginning to end. She seems to understand the incompatibility between the two classes. She seems to just want to be a servant, clean up the housework, or organize things. The worst hope is to become the owner of that rich man’s house.

Park Da-song and Park Da-hye

Park Da-song is a very observant boy. He was the first to discover that the taste of the Jin family was the same. But he didn't explain it, but let the suspense, let his father, the old wolf, resolve it.

He celebrated his birthday when he was one year old and ate a very delicious cake. So at night I was thinking about my own cake, but I didn't expect to ran into the "cockroach" (the former nanny's husband) who wanted to steal food in the basement.

He called out loudly thinking he was hell. So much so that I often draw a self-portrait of that ghost in my paintings. The essence of his painting is actually asking for help. But Duo Song's mother didn't seem to notice. Prove that the relationship between mother and child is not so harmonious.

Duosong came down with heavy rain on his birthday. He still insisted on sleeping in the tent outside, in fact, he was afraid that the "ghost" would appear again.

once again proves that Duosong's heart is so scared and nervous. Not understood by my family, my parents are still doing indescribable things on the sofa.

Park Dahui is a pure and innocent girl. She loves Jiyu very much. The relationship between the two of them seems to be telling the relationship between the two classes. This love affair seems to be talking about a real problem that is right now in society.

is whether two people of different classes will end up together. I think the screenwriter’s answer is no. And here I want to express my point of view. In fact, it is feasible to have improper households, but it is subject to inhuman pressure.

For example: Diving Queen Guo Jingjing's family is relatively poor, but she herself is very nice, very reasonable, very emotionally intelligent, and capable. Therefore, if it is true love, and two people have better qualities, it may not be necessary for them to be improper together.

Jin Ji Ting and Jin Ji Woo

Jin Ji Ting is the person closest to the rich class. She has good super learning ability and good artistic skills. Therefore, Jin Ji-woo will sigh: "I think you are like the owner of this house."

Moreover, Jin Ji-ting never doubted her ability, but a little despised Mrs. Park, thinking she is just a mad woman. So that being killed by someone behind her became the biggest regret of the family.

Jin Jiyu is a boy with heavier scheming. He looks weak and weak on the surface, but he is actually very ambitious. But his strength is not worthy of his ambition.

Whether Kim Ki-woo really loved Park Da-hye, my answer is no. All his actions and goals are planned. And he even looked through Dahui's diary in order to understand her enough. This proves that this person is actually a despicable villain. Although he has the aura of a protagonist. But I still hate this kind of people whose interests are paramount. He hurt a little sister of pure fantasy love.

In the last scene, Kim Ki-woo said he would work hard to make money and buy the house. In fact, I think it is a difficult goal to achieve. Like the public university he had set at the beginning, the goal was too high. A person at the lowest level, and there is no very talented person, said something like Tsinghua Peking University, it is obviously unreasonable.

Symbolic things-the stone

About that stone, its name is called Feng Shui stone, which attracts wealth. It is actually a fake stone. When the Jin family was in flood, the rock floated up, but when Jin Jiyu put it in the creek, he found that it was actually no different from the rock in the creek.

At the beginning, the Jin family put this stoneThe head confessed, and then put it into the creek. I think their family has begun to move towards a higher class, and they have begun to bid farewell to the class that advances by external forces. Jin Jiyu began to possess his own belief and restraint, so that afterwards, Jin Jiyu was not crushed to death by that stone.

Finally, this movie is the best movie I have seen in recent years. I hope everyone has time to watch it. If you have other opinions about this movie, please comment at the bottom of the screen.
