Parasite (2019)

CONTAINS SPOILERS

This is that time of the year when the Oscar nominations are announced, I realize I haven't seen most of the nominees and start catching up — or at least I try — before the ceremony. Bong Joon-ho's Parasite was at the top of my list as it scored six nominations, including Best Foreign Feature and Best Picture. Needless to say, I had quite high expectations and, thankfully, the film didn't just meet them, it exceeded them as it turned out to be a complex, rather shocking and yet fascinating tale of the human condition.
