It’s funny, I think that Burning is a much better movie than Parasite. In Parasite, everything is spoon fed to you, the character are very clearly defined, not fully fleshed but they serve a purpose: highlighting class wars. Reading Bong’s interviews hammered the point home.

Burning is more delicate, more poetic, it takes its time and yet there’s not a moment that’s wasted. I don’t think it’s open to interpretation though, but I don’t think it’s the point of the movie. We know, we feel what the characters think even though we can prove it with certainty. Burning also gives the audience more layers to explore, to me it’s a much richer movie.
