Movies-Parasite

Watching Parasite a few years after the buzz is interesting. I was spoiled for everything at the time and felt like it might be too much misery. But I ended up enjoying it a lot!

The direction, the acting, the script, it all comes together. The first third of it is funny as hell, then it takes a turn to horror, and then it careens towards a fated tragedy.

Another film where I think "eat the rich" isn't a good description of it. I like how it takes a very ludicrous scenario and then tacks on another absurd scenario and follows both to their inevitable conclusions. The Kims are highly sympathetic, but also callous, even towards others like them.

A movie that deserved its awards.

Movies over the last two weeks.

I got myself a letterboxd account because I decided I should watch more movies, and the last two weeks I watched Pyscho (1960) and Saltburn.

Movies. Icon is slightly relevent

I had a superhero/mostly Marvel viewing week of sorts consisting of Thor, X-Men: First Class, Iron Man and Megamind. Which was nice, though rental prices are ridiculous. But well, thoughts...
