‘Parasite‘established a milestone in the Korean film industry by receiving immense recognition for its brilliant script and exciting story.
The film won several awards from the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival to Academy Award for Best Picture. The film was recognized all over the world, receiving praise everywhere.
After being released in 2019 and creating a ‘parasitic’ phenomenon in 2020, the South Korean film once again returned to the spotlight, while international fans resisted a Hollywood journalist who claimed that “even the strangest foreign films have a chance this season of awards ” thanks to ‘Parasite.’
On January 8, the Hollywood Reporter released an article entitled, “Oscar: ‘Parasite’ ushered in a golden era of strange films?“claiming that ‘Parasite’ is a ‘strange’ film. In addition, the journalist said he paved the way for ‘totally strange’ entries in the Oscar International Feature Film category.
The journalist listed some of the ‘weird’ films included in this year’s candidates that may have a chance to win the Oscar as ‘Parasite’ opened the door to what he suggests as abnormal films “where none of the normal rules apply. “
As the article spread across the web, netizens stood up to the Hollywood Reporter, as many asked for an explanation of why ‘Parasite’ is ‘strange’.
