Pachinko (prod. Soo Hugh).
What’s so deeply impressive about Pachinko’s structure is its echoes of intergenerational trauma and how decisions made by one generation continue to shape the next wave of family history. How it uses language and regional dialects to express the repressed feelings of the characters’ dialogue adds so much depth to their layered emotions.

Justin Chon shooting Gook in black and white as an homage to La Haine is pretty based. Tonally it's similar to the former as the lead characters are POC trying to get by in troubling times as their day descends into chaos. At times, it felt similar to Clerks with the humor and vibe of running a store.

'21 & Over' - Crap from the Past and from the Writers of 'The Hangover'
Honestly, I did not laugh once during “21 and Over.” Maybe I chuckled a bit at one or two scenes, but that really doesn’t qualify as a laugh. This film is essentially a rip-off of “The Hangover” with elements of “Superbad” thrown in for good measure. It aspires to be a classic comedy like those films and even “Animal House” and “Adventures in Babysitting” among others, but it does not come even…

(短評)映画『ブルー・バイユー』
Tumblr media
(引用元)
『ブルー・バイユー』(2021年、米国、原題:Blue Bayou)
移民政策の法律によって、米国人の養子として米国で育ったにも関わらず、突如強制送還されることになり、家族と引き離される男の姿が粛々と描かれる💨
移民強制送還に関する問題定義とともに、血縁に囚われない家族の在り方や、米国で生きる移民達が抱える思いを炙り出す映画😢

韓国出身である主人公とその白人女性の妻、その連れ子らとの関係性と並行して、癌の末期であるベトナムからの移民の女性との交流を描いていたのは素晴らしかったです👍
己のルーツや故郷に対する気持ちと米国人であることのバランスを保つ移民のアイデンティティを見事に描いていると思いました‼️
あの超意地悪で酷い警官が、あまりにもひど過ぎでちょっと極端なのと、彼とペアを組んでた警官の心境の変化をもう少し時間かけて描く方がより良かったのかなと思ったりしました‼️
最後の甘くない着地も含めて、現実を突きつけつつ、移民・家族の共同意識を描いていて、射程の広い映画だと思いました👌

Getting Ready for Sundance With 'Jamojaya' Star Rich Brian At 17, Rich Brian exploded onto the scene with his high-energy viral debut "Dat $tick." He then defied the odds by riding off the notoriety, signing with powerhouse entertainment company 88rising alongside the likes of Dumbfoundead and Joji. Now 23 with several projects, notable collaborations and the recognition of being the first Asian artist to have a number-one hip-hop record on the iTunes Charts, Brian is turning his sights to the silver screen.Related | How 88Rising Raised the Bar for Asian RepresentationThis past weekend at Sundance Film Festival, Rich Brian made his acting debut in his first feature film, the Justin Chon-directed drama Jamojaya. Named after an Indonesian folktale, the film is about the growing gap between a father and son as they face the pressures of the music industry.Brian stars as a young, up-and-coming rapper who wants to hire representation from the United States to take over the reins from his father. Dubbed as one of the festival’s rising stars, the Indonesian rapper, singer and producer “gives a convincing performance in the film as a fish-out-of-water musical sensation very much like his real-life self," according to The Hollywood Reporter.Despite the pressures of such a serious role, Brian never lost his love for humor: Playing with the stereotypical images of rapper and actor, the multi-hyphenate released the track "Sundance Freestyle." With a whiplash-inducing flow and bouncy production, Brian reflects on how far he has come with a gleam in his eye and smile on his face. "And now I’m boutta watch my first movie that I shot up in the islands/ Surrounded by the audience and my friends/ That shit turn everything else into nonsense/ To think I’m only on my second project," he raps in the midst of a joyous celebration, proving that he has broken all expectations. The sky is the limit.Below, watch "Sundance Freestyle" and check out an exclusive PAPER's behind-the-scenes look at Rich Brian preparing for the premiere of Jamojaya at Sundance.Photos courtesy of Ivan Meneses, lack Rabbit Monolith and Jack Szabo https://www.papermag.com/rich-brian-sundance-photo-diary-2659321360.html
