Episode 54: Parasite (2019)

I revisited Parasite after first seeing it around 2020 when all the Oscar hype surrounding it was everywhere.

It’s Bong Joon-ho’s story of a family slowly working their way into the lives of a wealthy household, with the incredible house itself almost becoming a character in the film.

In this episode I revisit my first impressions, the rewatch, the performances, and whether this hugely acclaimed film landed any differently for me second time around — while also talking about wanting to explore more of Bong Joon-ho’s other films like Memories of Murder and Mickey 17.
