Thoughts on Sharon Waxman's NYT opinion piece? (Headline revision is mine.) What do you think we should do about this? Shrink our budgets (and scopes) even more? Advocate for more soft money? Democratize distribution and marketing (how?)? Stop making movies? www.nytimes.com/2026/01/29/o...

RIP James Ransone. He played "Stan" the paparazzo in Aaron Katz's GEMINI. He was wonderful in Sean Baker's TANGERINE too. A great actor gone too soon. 😢 variety.com/2025/tv/obit...

If I had $1 for every person who ever said to me “no one wants to see dark films,” I could start a film distribution fund. To those people, I now say to you, “IN YOUR FACE!!!” 😛 ROSEMEAD has won Locarno Film Festival’s Prix du Public UBS audience award!!! www.locarnofestival.ch/news/2025/08...

Come chat with the all-Chinese American lead creative team of ROSEMEAD on 6/8! RSVP asianpacificfilmexperience.org. Besides our film, only 2 others have had an Asian American writer, director, lead producer & lead actor! 🤯 There are only a few tix left for 6/12, so grab them before we sell out!

My 1st feature is turning 20 🤯! Grateful Andrew Bujalski's MUTUAL APPRECIATION launched my #producing career. Made w/a crew of 6, the seminal #indiefilm is a time capsule #Brooklyn in the early aughts. Watch the film (35mm print!) Sat 6/14 @metrograph & stay for Q&A! metrograph.com/film/?vista_...

Maybe it's not the best idea to speak on a panel about distribution while I have a film seeking distribution, but here I go. Join us 6/14! I'll try not to depress the heck outta you. And anyway, it's FREE! Get tix at seedandspark.com/events.

Swap out "female founder" for "female director or producer" and it is the exact same. 😡

'Wang, of “Everything Everywhere All at Once,” said he made $35,000 a year over the seven years that he worked on the film, which made $140 million globally on a $14 million budget.' For the love of #producing & the future of film, a change has got to come. www.latimes.com/entertainmen...

The #Oscars 2026 campaign starts now (NOT🥴)! 😂 Appreciate the excitement for Lucy Liu in #Rosemead though! variety.com/lists/2026-o...
March 6, 2025 at 9:53 PM
#Oscars barely ended & Variety already talking abt what's next. Well, I'll take it since they say Lucy Liu in ROSEMEAD is the #2 most anticipated performance (2nd only to Daniel Day Lewis coming out of retirement to star in his son's film). Cannot wait for you to see it! variety.com/lists/most-a...
