Dark comedy about family and class that has to be seen to be appreciated
Parasite is a dark comedy by Bong Joon-ho. I’d seen an earlier movie by him called the Host which was a great take on the monster genre so I expected something good from Parasite.<br /><br />The movie is about a down and out family that lives in a dank basement apartment. None of them have real jobs until the son Ki-woo (Choi Woo-shik) gets a visit from a friend. He gives Ki-woo a stone sculpture that is supposed to bring family success. The son says it’s very metaphorical. On top of that his friend tells him about a job to teach the daughter of a rich family English. This comes out of nowhere and opens up all kinds of opportunities Ki-woo’s family could never even think of before. In taking advantage of the situation however they become like parasites, hence the title of the film.<br /><br />At face value this is a movie about family. Ki-woo’s goes from nothing to having something. That brings up the larger issue which is class. Ki-woo’s family is poor and struggling. People go the bathroom right outside their front window almost every night because they can’t even tell anyone lives there. Ki-woo goes to work for a family that has everything. The differences couldn’t be made more stark and Ki-woo’s family even talks about how the other half lives. The father of the rich family talks about how poor people have a smell to them which is offensive. There’s also the ways the two families live. Ki-woo’s is always together, while the rich family is almost always apart even when they are in the same house together. Really this film has to be seen to be fully understood and appreciated and I recommend everyone go see it.
