OPINION: Debate over subtitles turns a blind eye to low-vision viewers
Bong Joon-ho made history last year as “Parasite” was crowned the first South Korean film to win the Oscar for Best Picture, declaring that “Once you overcome the 1-inch-tall barrier of subtitles, you will be introduced to so many more amazing films.”
Bong’s now-famous comment has inspired even more conversation online about what many see as an American reluctance to watch foreign films with subtitles whether it be because of laziness, illiteracy, blatant racism or some mixture of the three.
But his remark and the debate it sparked have stuck with me for much different reasons. For some people, that barrier is not simply something that can be overcome.
