tennisgurl February 10, 2020 Share February 10, 2020 Yep, Parasite for best international film! Not surprising but still very very well deserved. 4 Link to comment

After the commercial break Jon Stewart brought out Marketa Irglova so she could give her thank yous Edited February 10, 2020 by kittykat 18 Link to comment
Frost February 10, 2020 Share February 10, 2020 Popular selection! Parasite really stuck with me. I keep thinking about different aspects of it even several weeks after I saw it. 4 Link to comment
wallflower75 February 10, 2020 Share February 10, 2020 Yay Parasite!! I really wish it could win the big one this year, but I know in my heart that it won't. 5 Link to comment
Ohwell February 10, 2020 Share February 10, 2020 (edited) I'm happy for Parasite winning Best International but now I'm afraid it won't win Best Picture. That's ok though, they done great tonight. And he's ready to drink! I love it! Edited February 10, 2020 by Ohwell 11 Link to comment
tennisgurl February 10, 2020 Share February 10, 2020 Yeah I didn’t notice the new name until now. I like it better than Foreign Language Film. Awww everyone involved in Parasite is so happy! 7 Link to comment

KaveDweller February 10, 2020 Share February 10, 2020 Parasite was a great movie, but it seems unfair for it to be in both best international film and best picture. I thought the same thing last year with Roma. But I guess people submit whatever they qualify for. It was certainly a well deserved win. Link to comment
moonorchid February 10, 2020 Share February 10, 2020 I’m happy for “Parasite” but now I fear it’s definitely not winning Beat Picture...just anything but “Once Upon A Time in Hollywood” please! 4 Link to comment

That might be cultural though. I have read that Asian directors in general expect/demand more respect from the cast and crew, and directors like Ang Lee have said that it was a big culture shock to direct in Hollywood where movies are an assembly of moving parts. Akira Kurosawa was infamous for terrorizing his sets. 1 1 Link to comment
