President Donald Trump is apparently not a fan of ``Parasite,`` his biggest complaint being that the movie was made in South Korea.

Trump started talking about the Academy Awards during a campaign rally in Colorado Springs, Colorado, on Thursday. Parasite was named best picture, becoming the first non-English-language film to get the top honor.

``What the hell was that all about?`` Trump said. ``We've got enough problems with South Korea with trade. On top of that, they give them best movie of the year. Was it good? I don't know.``

Neon, the U.S. distributor for the subtitled film, shot back on Twitter. ``Understandable. He can't read,`` Neon tweeted.

The audience booed when Trump mentioned the Academy Awards and then cheered when he said: ``Can we get like `'Gone with the Wind' back please? `Sunset Boulevard,' so many great movies.``

``Parasite`` tells the story of how a family of four poor, unemployed people living in a slum basement apartment comically infiltrates a wealthy family residing at a luxurious mansion before things unravel violently and tragically. (AP)
