Parasite (new bong joon-ho movie)

[wanye]

watched PARASITE last night. loved it! if you can, go into it knowing nothing, i think you'll enjoy it more. let's just say things ESCALATE in this movie

en.wikipedia/wiki/Parasite_(2019_film)

it won the Palme d'Or at cannes this year, and is easily on my top ten films of the year

bong joon-ho did OKJA if that helps you decide. if you've not seen OKJA, you probably should go watch that too... that's a netflix movie, so you'll find it there

yes, the movie is subtitled. no, you shouldn't let this put you off (unless you have severe eyesight issues)

if you trust me, don't watch this trailer, just go find a copy of the movie and watch it. for the rest of you, here's a trailer...

*bump*

so it got SIX oscar nominations!

also, this is worth a read, it looks like theres going to be an HBO series based on the film that expands on it somewhat

Seeing this in the week and can't wait.

I cannot wait to see this. I’m going next week.

I love Bong Joon-Ho’s movies. I watched Okja and promptly turned Vegetarian.

Saw this yesterday and then woke up this morning to read of its Oscar success. Much deserved, a great film.

I was interested to see it before the Oscars, but now I definitely have to go!

[Jedi Princess]

We absolutely loved it.

I’m so glad I didn’t watch any trailers, or read any reviews.

We went last night, DH had watched it already so we went on his recommendation. It was really good... really really good.

[YLL]

I'm going after work today! Can't wait.

We are booked for Saturday - we rarely go to the cinema (not sure why! ) so am really looking forward to it!
