LOS ANGELES - South Korea’s “Parasite,” a pitch-black comedy about haves and have-nots in modern Seoul, won the Oscar for best international film on Sunday after also taking home the award for best original screenplay.
The thriller, showing how struggling scammers insinuate their way into the life of a rich family, with dire consequences, was considered the front runner going into Sunday’s ceremony after winning the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival last year, as well as Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild awards last month.
“The category has a new name now, from best foreign language to best international feature film,” Bong said in his acceptance remarks. “I’m so happy to be its first recipient under the new name.” Director and writer Bong Joon Ho said last month that the accolades proved that international films were breaking the language barrier with audiences.
