Them: oh, I didn’t really like Parasite
Me: is it because you were crushed by the ending? About how the son is driven to strive, hopelessly, endlessly, fruitlessly, to achieve financial success, represented literally by a house, so he can rescue his father? How the trap of generational poverty and trauma is shown as bleakly as a flooding basement and a bloody, bruised forehead???
Them: no I just don't like reading subtitles
#I can't sleep and I'm having thoughts#about the clawing desperate trapped feeling of poverty and how it warps you and warps your children#about timing your behavior and slamming your forehead into a lightswitch#over and over#to turn the lights on for people who don't even know you exist#about how the shining allure of freedom and escape for you and your family is used to keep you leaping for that shining beacon on the hill#about how it grinds our children up and spits them out dead or damaged#parasite
