Parasites: The Bright Mirror And The Source Of Darkness

Ren Ming / Wen

The parasite, directed by Feng Junhao, a Korean director, has recently won four awards from Oscar after taking off the golden palm, and has launched another storm in Korea. Those who agree that Oscar and Cannes have lost their standard and who compromise with the populist to business once again defend their position, and even a comic adaptation of "if you are bright, Oscar is not dark", it is constantly forwarded in social media.

Feng Junhao is well versed in the principles of commercial films. Even in the middle of the semi basement, he presented a bright, warm, worldly world of joy and enjoyment. At first glance, this movie is similar to the thief family, directed by Hirokazu Kore Eda, a Japanese director. In the film, only the basement of the rich family of the former housekeeper's husband who is in debt is hiding the real darkness. However, the dark side also has some warm articles and details: books, cans, photographs, marriage certificates. Whether it is the semi basement that the kaseh family belongs to, or a private house built by a famous designer and building a high wall in the outside world, the environment and secular warmth of the host office has a strong contrast with the shocking mutual deception and slaughter revealed in the film. Park chief was stabbed to death because he could not bear the smell of people who had lived in the basement for a long time, and was stabbed to death because of such a small act of "covering his nose". This ending was almost satirical, but it pointed out how fragile and unpleasant it is to say "happy life" that only cares about its own interests and only focuses on protecting its own world. The director laid the groundwork of the "rich and faultless" life details of the rich who walked towards this defeat. They should not be blunt about the problem of the migrant workers, and "find a reason to send them away" - without considering whether the reasons are credible and whether the dismissal will produce injustice. In order to show their moral sense of innocence, they are actually irresponsible to others. Hypocrisy -- the rich actually wronged others and entered a negative cycle. After failing to miss the first 15 precious minutes of the first child, Mrs. Park and Mrs. Park tried to abide by this common sense. But when they did this, they totally ignored it. There were two other people who were bleeding and lying on the grass dying as if they were just straw, as if they did not exist. This is enough to explain everything and decide the destiny. Feng Junhao showed the great damage caused by the stabbing pain of the soul.

It's not about putting people at risk. Instead, let's start from our foothold and see what's wrong with the world. The parasite has no praise for the bottom. The first scene of the movie shows the family's indifference and the insensitivity to basement life. When Jiyu found that the cell phone could not rub the net, his sister asked him to change his password. His mother Zeng Ze kicked the sleeping husband and let him think of a way. Under his father's guidance, Keyu found the WiFi signal at the ceiling of the toilet. While folding pizza boxes, despite spraying disinfectants outside the window, Dad, kzir, kept his children from closing the windows in order to kill insects in his home. In the mist of disinfectants, he folded the box like a tenacious insect, and the carton that had been folded by his family was 1/4 unqualified. The details of the "pizza box" show that the family's public morality, attitude and standard of work are all very serious. In the scene of the rainstorm flooded the lower block, a neighbor who lived in a semi basement also held a bicycle, so that Kuester could help him to lift it. When others need help, he has no help. This shows that he, as a bottom man, is not more noble in moral sentiments than the rich he hates. When his son asked him what plans he had for the former housekeeper who was tied up in the basement, Keeer told him the truth of "no plan to be a man". KEE had failed to open the early morning cake shop (the former housekeeper's husband owed a loan shark because he had opened the early morning cake shop). This experience may give him the feeling that "life will never follow the plan". However, the killing of the killing and betrayal of the country is regarded as a random act, and the loss of this basic moral sense is startling. The moral expression of the brothers and sisters in Jiyu is related to this family education. The movie shows that Keating and her mother are ready to find time to go to the basement to send some food to the two people who are tied up, but because of Mrs. park's interruption, it is a pity for fate.

After creating a world full of details, a quiet life and a painful world after watching the film, Feng Junhao ended with a dream, showing us the root of all this and its endless cycle. Jiyu, who had no job and didn't go to university, set a "fundamental" plan. "I want to make money and earn a lot of money." When I earn money, I will buy the house, and Dad, you just go up the stairs. In a world other than money, the rich and the poor are bound to be disabled, and all of this is bound to be endless. Despite the per capita income of South Korea, Ji Yu has to work hard for 547 years to buy the house. The gap between the rich and the poor and the solidification of the class are a reflection of the Korean society outside the film narrative.

In the movie, Mrs. Pu's family's superiority, self protection, and "no crossing" requirement for others is based on the "service standard" defined by money, which is generally accepted by most of the ordinary people, and is regarded as the "pie" of wealthy families. However, the beautiful life created by the mass media such as advertising and the consumerism is unable to withstand the real contact and collision between people. It can be said that in the world of money supremacy, money will become a huge monster, devouring everything that is parasitic on it, whether poor or wealthy. This may be the warning of parasites. In this sense, I think this film is a "bright mirror" of commercial films, and illuminated the source of darkness.

Feng Junhao, who is good at video language, has already revealed this information in the poster: on the screen, the family of Mr. Jye and Mr. park are covered by a black bar or a white rod. Under the "money first" values, they are blind.
