Parasite vs No Country for Old Men

Both movies won Academy Award.
Parasite, the Korean movie, is the Best Picture in 2020. It is about class divide.
No Country for Old Men, the movie is based on the 2005 novel by American author Cormac McCarthy, was the Best Picture in 2008. It is a dark film. The theme is greed. 

Greed.  Revenge. Violence.
Why, some people ask, movies that promotes violence, ended up bagging the Academy Award?

Watch the two movies. Be the judge. Maybe one day, Malaysia can bag the Award. But please work within Shariah-compliant framework.
