Post subject:  The oscars

Have managed to see most of the big films included in the awards now (although not all)

Have to say they got it right with Parasites a fascinating and really well done film, story ,dialogue, plot acting music . It was excellent.
Social satire, black comedy, thriller, with horror elements. Absolutely loved it.

Was better than 1917 which I also enjoyed.

Jo jo rabbit was great as well. Funny and a good film to go to with teenage kids.

Joker was good but a bit hard going but Joaquin did a great acting job. I like him as an actor. Does not just do one role but pushes himself to try different things.

Tarantino is like marmite. I either love or hate his films not massively keen on once a time in Hollywood. But some of the acting was good.

If you have not seen it Parasites really is a great film. Well worth that first foreign language film to win the big one.

I have yet to see it - although I intend to.

Have you tried his earlier work? 'Snowpiercer' is a fantastic dystopian sci-fi, based on a brilliant French graphic novel, with some interesting things to say about the environment, inequality, privilege and human nature. 'The Host' and 'Mother' are equally good - whilst Okja, about genetically engineered super-pigs, is a challenge.

I imagine after the success of Parasite, he'll have carte blanche to make whatever he wants - so it will be interesting to see if he continues to plough his own furrow, or ends up directing a Marvel movie.
