* Presence of "Suite Suite Chinatown" directors & Artist Talk.
The acclaimed documentary, Hollywood Chinese directed by Arthur Dong, is starring the legendary actress Nancy Kwan. The 90-minute film illuminates a century of Chinese American cinematic history, from rare silent classics such as Marion Wong's The Curse of Quon Gwon (1916) to the contemporary critical and commercial success of Ang Lee's Brokeback Mountain (2005). The film features a treasure trove of clips, punctuated with personal accounts from the movie industry's most accomplished Chinese and Chinese-American talent.
