Getting Personal about Parasite (2019) | Review — ahnest kitchen
You know what kind of plan never fails? No plan. No plan at all. You know why? Because life cannot be planned. - Kim Ki-Taek, Parasite (2019) It was early morning in 2017, right before sunrise. I remember the air being more muggy than usual in the hot, humid summers of Korea. But that didn’t stop Uncle Sam and I from taking our morning hike. As we trotted down the steep steps, I felt the dirt creep into my shoes. We eventually got to the bottom of the steps. Uncle Sam stopped and asked me, “Sarah, you know what differs me from your Dad?” Confused, I immediately looked at the tree adjacent to me. I looked back at him and said, “What?” He replied, “Unlike your Dad, I like to plan things out. I’ll make a Plan A. If Plan A doesn’t work out, I’ll have a Plan B. Then a Plan C. That is what makes me different”. My eyes rolled down to my shoes, and I noticed the dirt had covered the net of my shoes. I stomped it out, and replied “Okay”. Thoroughly built with dark humor, Parasite hit all of it
