Rosie, finally i watched Parasite on Saturday....after the Oscars, a new distributor bought the movie and re-released it in cinema so most cinemas was playing it..including the one near my house, which only plays English movies...Parasite was the first international movie playing there.
I liked the movie and my friend who never watched anything Korean and hates subtitles ended up also liking the movie...she said she was able to get into the movie although it was with subtitles.
I also do get why this movie attracted Hollywood...they are not used to this type of story telling and this type of social class subject...so they were captivated...however I do agree with you that there have been lot of good Tamil movies...it's sad that Tamil movies don't get the same type of exposure...maybe in future now that they opened up a bit.
Parasite has nothing similar to Minsara kanna plot other than the fact that a family infiltrate to a house with a purpose...here the family is really poor and not pretending to be poor... their purpose is not love but for financial gain....so Minsara kanna producer better watch the movie before he sues the movie😆.
