Sunday’s win caps off a remarkable year for Parasite. “The story is very universal,” Bong told Variety in a recent interview.
The black comedy Parasite tells the story of the poor Kim family, who scheme their way into service jobs with the wealthier Park family, only to make several shocking discoveries about the Park’s modernist mansion.Ī blood-soaked satire of class tensions and climate change, the movie has proved a hit around the world, taking in more than $100 million worldwide. “I'm ready to drink tonight,” joked director Bong Joon-ho during one of his acceptance speeches. The film also took home Oscars for Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, and Best International Feature Film. The South Korean film Parasite earned the top prize at Sunday’s Academy Awards in Hollywood, making Oscar history by becoming the first ever foreign-language film to win Best Picture.
