He can be heard saying, “The new film that has really really inspired me to make great cinema is Parasite from South Korea. I think that was excellent and so was Joker. I think these two films were very good.”
Just saw Parasite the South Korean movie on my kids recommendation. What a delightfully discomforting film. A bizarre look at social status, the state of the world…and the parasitic nature of the Materialistic Hope we all feed and live off!!

A bizarre look at social status, the state of the world…and the parasitic nature of the Materialistic Hope we all feed and live off!!”
Once the superstar was asked to comment on ‘Joker’ on Twitter, to which he replied, “So well nuanced. So felt…quietly screaming…”
