Somehow,Parasitefelt both suspiciously ubiquitous and conspicuously absent at the same time.

So I wanted to see Parasite in NYC this weekend and its all sold out!

Good for Bong, bad for me!

So why the slow-burn release?

And by the middle of next month,Parasitewill be programed nationwide, playing in 125 theatrical markets.

That kind of North American platform release is a go-to for foreign films and movies intended for art-house cinemas.

WithBooksmart, I dont know why you wouldnt do that.

Or kick it to the festivals and go slow.

To go wide seemed crazy.
