In film and television, the East is portrayed as a land of stereotype and trope; a detached perspective and portrayal of the identity and nuance of the Asian culture. Ever since Bong-Joon Ho’s Parasite, Lulu Wang’s The Farewell and more recently, Lee Issac Chung’s Minari; it becomes clear of the challenging dynamic of Asian representation and identity in cinema and the multi-faceted narratives artists develop and write. Why do the pre-conceived notions of ethnicity define the perspective and understanding of a character within a narrative? In this week’s episode, Raf and Rod are joined by a local Toronto filmmaker and a friend of the Pod, Oscar Lao. The three dive deep into their own relationships and perspectives of Asian identity and representation and how their own experiences have shaped their understanding of the films and narratives they chase today. In addition, Raf gets vindicated about his theory on Godzilla and Kong, gets blasted by Rod (1 word letterboxd reviews, right?) and we give our thoughts on the hottest Twitter trend – turned A24 Feature.
