A masterpiece.

Rating: 10/10 (25 February 2020)

The visual style and mood of 2019's "Parasite" is perfect. The editing, the cinematography and the story all perfectly coincide with each other. This film is the perfect example of every single part of a piece of art fitting with its other components. With the precision and perfect aspect of the rich family, is the perfectly omnipotent framing, camera movement and composition of every single shot.
The static nature of the camera for most of the film shows how normal and static the status of the family is, in contrast with the family that starts to work there. The family that takes the place of the housekeepers, driver and tutors are shot with more fluid and quicker camera movements, to convey their status and attitude.
I could talk about this film for days, so I will finish this review by discussing the ending. The emotional nature of the families connections to one another is perfectly encapsulated through the last line, and the last scene. The emotional relevance of such a run down family now down on their luck and half killed is touching, and perfectly fits with the beginning of the film. The very last shot conveys this perfectly, with the same shot at the beginning being the same one that is at the end.
