In today’s episode, Film Forum presents a conversation between filmmaker Wayne Wang and New Yorker writer Hua Hsu from the opening night of the new restoration of Wang’s groundbreaking independent film CHAN IS MISSING, on August 20th. When it premiered in 1982 at MoMA’s New Directors/New Films festival, CHAN IS MISSING, a Neo-Noir comedy-drama set in San Francisco’s Chinatown, announced Wang as an exciting new voice in American cinema. Wang went on to make the acclaimed films DIM SUM: A LITTLE BIT OF HEART and the Academy Award-nominated adaptation of Amy Tan’s novel THE JOY LUCK CLUB, both of which also screened during our run of CHAN IS MISSING. He continues to make vibrant work that centers on the Asian-American experience. Special thanks to Marcus Hu at Strand Releasing, Hua Hsu, and Wayne Wang for making this event possible.
