'Parasite' and '1917' are very different, but both reflect a dissatisfaction with the kind of comic book movies Hollywood turns out these days, critic Kenneth Turan says.

“Parasite’s” distributor was Neon, not a storied studio but a feisty upstart that is barely three years old. And its story line had roots in down and dirty genre filmmaking, something the academy does not have a history of consistently rewarding. While it is encouraging for films as different as “Parasite” and “1917” to vie for the top prize, it doesn’t say a lot about the health of mainstream Hollywood that those who toil in its vineyards will go to whatever extremes necessary to avoid voting for the products that dominate its output.
