I’ve been feeling such strong Parasite fervor over the last few weeks, but it won’t be winning the Best Picture Oscar. Can’t happen, forget it. So the idea is that a great number of Academy members know or have sensed this, and so they’ve voted to give Bong Joon-ho the Best Director Oscar as a pat-on-the-back compensation prize for not winning the Big One. Along with the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay as well as Best International Feature. How’s that one sound?
