So happy. The best movie of the year, the second best movie of the decade, and a top 20 film of all time actually won. Everyone should see Parasite now.

Only 2014 really competes (12 Years A Slave, American Hustle, Captain Phillips, Dallas Buyers Club, Gravity, Her, Nebraska, Philomena, The Wolf of Wall Street). Parasite was a surprise, but not as much as people think. It was only slightly behind 1917 in terms of gambling odds.

Monumental moment for Parasite!
I will concede to having a blisteringly Hot Take though. Is Parasite really the first foreign language film to win Best Picture? Does The Artist not qualify? It is a French movie, whose initial release in its country of origin features dialogue which is almost entirely in French (the French version has French intertitles, it's not just the English ones subtitled.) It's just that the dialogue is written out and not spoken. The version we got in America was, essentially, a dub, but due to the nature of the film the dub is essentially seamless, so no one watching it realizes that's what it was.* But congrats to Parasite! Please don't mistake my being pedantic for a criticism. *I'm not sure if the film was originally written in English, and then translated into French for the French release or not, to be fair. If it actually was, then ignore my point. --- Congrats on Advokaiser for winning the 2018 Guru Contest! Yesmar ... Copied to Clipboard!
