In
April 2008, I wrote about a fascinating documentary I saw at the Sundance Kabuki called "
Hollywood Chinese", directed by Arthur Dong. As Wikipedia describes it, "
Dong utilizes clips of more than 100 films and interviews of prominent Chinese Americans to create a thorough overview in the depiction of Chinese in mainstream Hollywood films."
I have since seen Hollywood Chinese at least 3 times. In May, 2009,
PBS's American Masters aired the documentary. Above is a YouTube preview. Please note the embedded link is disabled. To watch the preview, click the link and you will be taken directly to YouTube.
