I went to see Parasite today. 

A Koran film nominated for Picture of the Year.

It does have subtitles, but they just confirm the good acting. 

The top winner at this year's Cannes Film Festival, Palm d’Or. 

 Parasite received widespread critical acclaim, particularly for Bong's direction and screenplay, cinematography, editing, and production values. At the 77th Golden Globe Awards, the film was nominated for three categories including Best Director and Best Screenplay, and won Best Foreign Language Film, making it the first ever Korean film to achieve that feat.^[10] It was also nominated for four awards at the 73rd British Academy Film Awards: Best Film, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay and Best Film Not in the English Language. It is the first Korean film to receive nominations at the British Academy Film Awards (except for Best Film Not in the English Language). It garnered numerous accolades at the annual awards of film critics societies including Los Angeles Film Critics Association Award for Best Film, National Society of Film Critics Award for Best Picture, and New York Film Critics Circle Award for Best Foreign Language Film. It was chosen by Time magazine as one of the top ten films of 2019

“Parasite” follows a clear and resourceful Ki-Woo (Choi Woo-sik) young man living in a cellar that is easily accessible to local night screamers, with his several years younger street smart sister Ki-jung (Park So-dam), a farouche but friendly mother Chung-sook (Chang Hyae-jin) and the lucidly optimistic father  Ki-taek (Song Kang-ho). The family is trying to survive with the minimum wage, 

stacking pizza boxes, stealing the wi-fi signal from their neighbors and leaving open windows during street disinfection to avoid paying for disinfection of their own home.

Personally, I will never look at a pear the same.

From sub-basement to the up-scale architectural residence, 

the film has so many unexpected twists and turns.
