      it is really not about class exploitation in any straightforward way. and absolutely not about class solidarity at all; the family just enthusiastically fucks over all their peers.

      I mean, portraying a lack of solidarity is a way a movie can in fact be about solidarity

      it can be! I don't see it in this case; way too fragmented and confused about it. I think someone has to make at least a gesture at a case for solidarity, if that's what the movie wants to be about.

      They do that in one scene quite explicitly, no?

      Yes, the dad gets drunk and maudlin and starts asking the son if the chauffeur they got fired ended up all right and got another job, and the son tries to reassure him while the topic starts pissing the daughter off

      right. but again, empathy isn't really solidarity. like, vague guilt about fucking this guy over isn't a sense of shared struggle.

      Right, solidarity does not exist in this story, that's the tragedy

      It's actually very clear that it would not have been difficult for the Kims and the housekeeper to come to a truce thanks to the MAD they have against each other once they know each other's secrets -- leaving some food for the guy is no big deal, the housekeeper did it for years

      Well, yes, they both start escalating once the Kims' secret comes out but she's the one who's pretty consistently on the side of pleading for her husband's life

          Well, that would be a happy ending to the movie, which is why it can't be allowed to happen If you mean the fact this isn't a long-term stable situation -- the Parks could always move, the little kid is slowly twigging to what's going on, etc -- that's also part of the theme
