Minari feat. Inkoo Kang
Criticism Is Dead - A podcast by Criticism Is Dead
Categories:
We discuss — and we mean really discuss — Minari, Lee Isaac Chung's new semi-autobiographical film about a Korean American family that moves to rural Arkansas in the 1980s. Things we touch on: Asian American and immigrant narratives, nature and the land, Korean masculinity and fatherhood, the idea of the "American Dream," and more!!! We are joined by special guest Inkoo Kang, who is a TV critic for The Hollywood Reporter, a fantastic culture writer, and a great person to follow on Twitter (@inkookang). Read Inkoo's thoughtful interview with Lee Isaac Chung and her piece on the promise and pitfalls of Asian American reality TV. And check out her and Daniel Schroeder's limited podcast All About Almodóvar, about the films of Pedro Almodóvar. ... Follow us on Twitter and Instagram.
