Heard about Crazy Rich Asians<\/a>? I’m sure you have.<\/p>\n

It is very difficult, if not impossible, to not have heard about it. It is all over the news and social media.<\/p>\n

Crazy Rich Asians<\/em><\/a> centers on Rachel Chu, a American-born Chinese economics professor, who travels to Singapore to attend her boyfriend Nick Young\u2019s best friend\u2019s wedding. It\u2019s there where Rachel discovers that the Young family is not only well-off but extremely rich.<\/p>\n

The often told storylines of its attractions and popularity are a breakthrough in leads casting, casting a storyline of asians different from stereotypes and the celebration of\u00a0 soapy tale of love in spite of discontent challenges in a opulent and crazy world filled with wealth excesses.<\/p>\n

The movie is a first full-length film in over 25 years to feature a predominantly Asian-American cast (the last being Joy Luck Club<\/em>) in a story that\u2019s set in present-day. None of them are playing scientists, martial artists, assassins, or courtesans \u2014 the kinds of roles Asian and Asian-American actors are frequently reduced to playing. Instead, Crazy Rich Asians<\/em> is the rare American movie that allows Asian men and women to be objects of affection, glamorous wealthy villains operating in Singapore society\u2019s most elite circles and a love story of tug of war between seeking personal ideal vs fulfilling family responsibility.<\/p>\n

Many movie goers could identify one or more aspects of the movie, be it one’s identity, personal values & ambition and of course the triump of love above all else.<\/p>\n

I want to conclude by including an extract of Effel 65-Living in a Bubble<\/a><\/p>\n

The bubble’s not reality, but it’s inside your mind<\/em>
\nAnd makin’ you forget where you’re from and what’s behind<\/em>
\nIsn’t it suspicious how the world is now your friend<\/em>
\nAnd gettin’ in return one thousand more than whatever you could ever send?<\/em><\/p>\n

The bubble doesn’t make you, but it’s you that’s made the bubble<\/em>
\nAnd you better try to remember that it’s in your head<\/em>
\nThe bubble is a very tricky thing, all full of hype, and it’s not easy to try to see<\/em>
\nThe way that things are and they’ll always be<\/em><\/p>\n
