A LETTER OF SUPPORT

Dear Friends, Colleagues and Supporters:

FINISHING THE GAME, our new independent film, has been an opportunity to revisit our indie roots and reunite with many in the BETTER LUCK TOMMOROW family. The challenges of making a no-budget film are harsh and demanding, but at the same time, it is filmmaking in its purest form. Clearly, passion on the part of the cast and crew made this film possible. Now we are hoping to share FINISHING THE GAME with you as it comes out in theaters and into your homes.

End of an Era

 Roger, Julie and I drove down to San Diego today to do some advance interviews for the FTG release.  I actually attended UCSD for two years before going to film school at UCLA.  It was quite an amazing experience for an 18 year old.  I got to move out of the house for the first time and was able to really hang out and be an adult, but without all the baggage.  As we walked around downtown SD I would point out some of my favorite memories.  But halfway through I got some devastating news.  The Old Spaghetti Factory had closed down!  Back in the...Read more

Simplicity

II was in Tokyo last week hanging out and just exploring the city (mostly through food).  I realized it was impossible to get Diet Coke.  People just don't drink it in Japan.  I asked as many people as I could why Diet Coke is not popular in Japan.  And the answer came back the same from each, "why would we drink Diet?  If we really wanted to drink Coke we'd just drink Coke."  I replied “Well, but what if you don’t want the sugar”.  The answer was simple, “if I didn’t want sugar then I wouldn’t drink Coke”.  Hmmmm….

Life lessons

 
      

Everything I really needed to know about lifeI learned from Magic Johnson.  When it's all clicking it should be as smooth as one of the Laker's fast breaks.  If it doesn't work out, get another one going.

Need to Succeed

Justin Lowe

Audiences bring certain preconceptions shaped by two decades of ethnic cinema to Asian American films. They expect narratives and themes to revolve around issues of immigration, assimilation and identity, as filmmakers seek to both contrast and relate the multi-ethnic experiences of Asian Americans to trends i...Read more

By Justin Lowe

When animated go up against modified street racers this weekend, keep an eye on the career trajectory of s young director Justin Lin.

A filmmaker whos vaulted from a low-budget independent first feature to a summertime blockbuster in just three movies is clearly someone to watch. Writer-director Lins solo debut, 2003s , was a dark, incisive drama plumbing the social depths of wayward Asian-American teens t...Read more
