0:46Now PlayingU.S. President Donald Trump is apparently not a fan of the Oscar-winning “Parasite" movie, his biggest complaint being that the film was made in South Korea.
Trump was addressing a campaign rally in Colorado on Thursday when he mentioned the movie, which became the first non-English-language film to be named Best Picture at the Academy Awards last weekend.
“What the hell was that all about?" Trump asked. “We've got enough problems with South Korea with trade. On top of that, they give them best movie of the year? Was it good? I don't know."
Neon, the U.S. distributor for the subtitled film, shot back on Twitter: “Understandable. He can't read."
The audience booed when Trump mentioned the Academy Awards and then cheered when he said: “Can we get like ‘’Gone With the Wind' back please? ‘Sunset Boulevard,' so many great movies."
“Parasite" tells the story of how a family of four poor, unemployed people living in a slum basement apartment comically infiltrates a wealthy family residing at a luxurious mansion before things unravel violently and tragically.
