Summary

On the Spoiler Special podcast, Slate critics discuss movies, the occasional TV show, and, once in a blue moon, another podcast, in full spoiler-filled detail. This week, Dana Stevens, Forrest Wickman and Inkoo Kang discuss Parasite. With Hitchcock-like quality, Bong Joon-ho plays with the audience in the upstairs / downstairs dive into economic inequality. The Kims, stuck on their low social rung jump at the opportunity to latch onto an affluent family. But how long can they keep the ruse up? What will they do to keep up the charade?

0:48.9	Hi, Ingu.
0:49.8	Hello, hello.
1:14.4	All right, so, guys, this is kind of a major task to spoil Parasite for a few reasons. For one thing, I just feel like this is a really important movie. I really, really loved this movie. And I feel like maybe the first movie of this year since us, since Jordan Peel's us, that has not only haunted me for a couple weeks after seeing it, but that I can't stop talking about with everyone who's seen it. The minute you ask someone if they've seen Parasite, you launch into a conversation about it,
1:20.5	which often, like the conversations about us did, you know, get into these interpretive details in different ways of looking at the facts that are on the screen. So if any movie ever needed to be
1:25.4	spoiled this year besides us, I think it's
1:27.9	parasite. And as per usual, I'm going to just go around and quickly get your responses for us.
