PERSONAL THOUGHTS ON CRA: youtu.be/1JqvM5QQa3c
Crazy Rich Asians is out! But what do Singaporeans think about this Hollywood film? Is the film authentic and true to Singapore? Or did it appropriate and "Americanize" the country?
I, an Asian-Canadian, discuss with my Singaporean friend Hakim about the film, its representation of Asians and Singapore, and its impact on Asian representation in Hollywood.
93% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, a #1 opening spot in the box office, and strong feedback from Asians and Non-Asians. There is no denial that Crazy Rich Asians is sweeping the nation! It's a triumph for a Hollywood movie with a full Asian cast!
