John Oliver isn’t letting Donald Trump off the hook for bashing the history-making “Parasite” Oscar wins. During a February 20 rally in Colorado, Trump mocked the Academy for giving its biggest prize to Bong Joon Ho’s South Korean drama. “How bad were the Academy Awards this year?” Trump asked his supporters. “Did you see it? The winner is… a movie from South Korea! What the hell was that all about? We got enough problems with South Korea with trade. On top of that, they give him best movie of the year? Was it good? I don’t know. Let’s get ‘Gone With the Wind.’ Can we get ‘Gone With the Wind’ back, please?”
The president preferring “Gone With the Wind” over “Parasite” is hardly a surprise, at least that’s what Oliver argued at the beginning of the February 23 episode of his HBO late night talk show “Last Week Tonight.
