Ep. 8 - Asian American Coming-of-Age Movies
Sunday Oct 11, 2020
Sunday Oct 11, 2020
The Unverifieds take a look at two excellent Asian American coming-of-age movies: the famous Better Luck Tomorrow and the criminally less well-known Seoul Searching. But before getting to that, they discuss why some Asian Americans are embarrassed about martial arts movies, the whole desperate attempt to claim Eddie Van Halen as an Asian icon, and Yelp's ill-advised racism badges.
