This is the Man Issue and the featured model is the handsome and debonair actor, Russell Wong, who in many respects is the face of today’s modern Asian American masculine male. Russell will tease you with his appearance in The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor, which is currently in theaters, and you can see more of him in Unshakable later this year and Dim Sum Funeral in 2009. He is very busy at the moment with all these roles, but we were grateful for the time he spared to give us an interview and to pose for our pictures. If Russell Wong has captured the “handsome and mature” title, Justin Chon must assuredly claim that of “cute teen heartthrob”. We interviewed Justin, who has been regularly seen on Nickelodeon’s comedy show Just Jordan and will be appearing in two films to be released this year. Cute looks notwithstanding, Justin is a serious actor and someone to watch. His film, Crossing Over, will be released on August 22nd, and covers the timely and relevant topic of immigration in the United States. Speaking of immigration, a very important travelling exhibit will make a stop in Houston in August. I recently experienced Exit Saigon, Enter Little Saigon in San Jose, California. It captures the essence of what Vietnamese Americans endured when they left their country en route to their new home in the United States. While I was in the first wave of refugees and did not suffer through the trying times of those who followed on the boats, it is eminently clear how extraordinarily important this exhibit will be to those who did and to those interested in gaining a better perspective of that period. Finally, our health editor, Ivy Yang (whose blog is mooger.com), shares the secrets of longevity. While you may already know that reducing stress, having a balanced diet and exercising are critical components, Ivy tells us that making love Photo by Collin Kelly is also part of the mix. In fact, she offers some numbers that would suggest that it could replace the need for exercising as much. That’s probably the perfect statistic to have in our Man Issue! Best wishes, Viet Hoang Aug08 1-12-P 9/1/08 7:43 PM Page 3 The color yellow has played a recurrent symbolic role throughout the history of Asian culture. It symbolizes the earth that sustains all life, yet has been embraced by Buddhist monks as an expression of unchallenged power. Such is the role of yellow: always revered but in different ways under different circumstances. The mission of Yellow Magazine is to introduce our readers to the artistic , fashion, lifestyle and entertainment contributions made by Asian Americans. It is our hope that the depth and breadth of the topics and events we cover do justice to the pride that the color yellow has represented throughout the millennia. As the editor in chief of Yellow Magazine, my last name is Hoang, which also means yellow. Just as I am proud of my name, I am proud of my heritage, and proud of Yellow Magazine.

    U N D O I N G A Film by Chris Chan Lee Writer/Director Chris Chan Lee Details 90 minutes, HD, color, 2006 Producers Karin Chien Sung Kang Starring Sung Kang George Huey, Eric Kim, Catherine Park Kelly Hu Contact Karin Chien Russell Wong (917) 209-9602 Jose Zuniga [email protected] and Tom Bower Website www.undoingmovie.com SYNOPSIS One year after the death of his best friend, Sam Kim returns to Los Angeles determined to find redemption from the past. His mentor and only friend, DON, is a retired gangster with a parallel desire to leave the former world behind. But as Sam tries to balance revenge with reconciliation, he is drawn into the shadowy world he had left behind. Can Sam undo his mistakes before losing what he came back to save? - 1 - U N D O I N G D I R E C T O R ’ S S T A T E M E N T The story of UNDOING came to me upon my return from working overseas. A few years ago, I spent a little more than a year directing TV in Singapore. On a professional level, I found the experience to be both challenging and rewarding, however, throughout my time abroad, I became keenly aware of the disconnect between myself and my environment. Being an American-born Korean and working in a foreign country, I was missing home. The relationships and circumstances I had left behind were constantly on my mind. While working in Singapore, I was surrounded by a sea of unfamiliar faces - the Chinese production staff, the Malaysian camera crew, the Indian studio technicians, etc.

  • Strategic Representations of Chinese Cultural Elements in Maxine Hong Kingston's and Amy Tan's Works
    School of Media, Culture and Creative Arts When Tiger Mothers Meet Sugar Sisters: Strategic Representations of Chinese Cultural Elements in Maxine Hong Kingston's and Amy Tan's Works Sheng Huang This thesis is presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Curtin University December 2017 Declaration To the best of my knowledge and belief this thesis contains no material previously published by any other person except where due acknowledgment has been made. This thesis contains no material which has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma in any university. Signature: …………………………………………. Date: ………………………... i Abstract This thesis examines how two successful Chinese American writers, Maxine Hong Kingston and Amy Tan, use Chinese cultural elements as a strategy to challenge stereotypes of Chinese Americans in the United States. Chinese cultural elements can include institutions, language, religion, arts and literature, martial arts, cuisine, stock characters, and so on, and are seen to reflect the national identity and spirit of China. The thesis begins with a brief critical review of the Chinese elements used in Kingston’s and Tan’s works, followed by an analysis of how they created their distinctive own genre informed by Chinese literary traditions. The central chapters of the thesis elaborate on how three Chinese elements used in their works go on to interact with American mainstream culture: the character of the woman warrior, Fa Mu Lan, who became the inspiration for the popular Disney movie; the archetype of the Tiger Mother, since taken up in Amy Chua’s successful book Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother; and Chinese style sisterhood which, I argue, is very different from the ‘sugar sisterhood’ sometimes attributed to Tan’s work.

  • Review of Lisa See's Snow Flower and the Secret
    “I think it’s really about us”: Review of Lisa See’s Snow Flower and the Secret Fan & Wayne Wang’s Film Adaptation Elizabeth Ho (Ursinus College, Pennsylvania, USA) Lisa See, Snow Flower and the Secret Fan New York: Random House, 2005 (reprinted 2011) ISBN: 0-8129-6806-9 $ 10.20 London: Bloomsbury, 2007 (reprinted 2011) ISBN: 1408821621 £ 7.99 Snow Flower and the Secret Fan DVD US: Fox Searchlight, 2011 ASIN: B0061US4H4 $ 27.49 UK: 20th Century Fox, 2011 ASIN: B005KG4DWU £ 29.40 ***** Although set in nineteenth-century China, Lisa See’s Snow Flower and the Secret Fan (2005, republished 2011) creates obstacles for neo-Victorian studies. Can – or should – this novel, which does not reference ‘the Victorian’ as such be incorporated into neo-Victorianism’s archive? Of course, this is another way of asking: in what ways is neo-Victorianism constructed by a version of the nineteenth century anchored to the geographical boundaries of the British Empire? An historical novel, Snow Flower and the Secret Fan opens with its narrator, Lily, reminiscing about her birth “on the fifth day of the six month of the third year of Emperor Daoguang’s reign” (p. 9), placing the beginning of the novel, as the foreword has to inform its primarily Western readers, in 1823 and its action well into the nineteenth century. In her old age, Lily is known as the “one who has not yet died” (p. 3); she becomes a potential vehicle for the neo- Victorian, an avatar of the nineteenth-century past that continues to haunt the present.

  • Shakespeare on Film and Television in the Motion Picture, Broadcasting and Recorded Sound Division of the Library of Congress
    SHAKESPEARE ON FILM AND TELEVISION IN THE MOTION PICTURE, BROADCASTING AND RECORDED SOUND DIVISION OF THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS Compiled by Zoran Sinobad January 2012 Introduction This is an annotated guide to moving image materials related to the life and works of William Shakespeare in the collections of the Motion Picture, Broadcasting and Recorded Sound Division of the Library of Congress. While the guide encompasses a wide variety of items spanning the history of film, TV and video, it does not attempt to list every reference to Shakespeare or every quote from his plays and sonnets which have over the years appeared in hundreds (if not thousands) of motion pictures and TV shows. For titles with only a marginal connection to the Bard or one of his works, the decision what to include and what to leave out was often difficult, even when based on their inclusion or omission from other reference works on the subject (see below). For example, listing every film about ill-fated lovers separated by feuding families or other outside forces, a narrative which can arguably always be traced back to Romeo and Juliet, would be a massive undertaking on its own and as such is outside of the present guide's scope and purpose. Consequently, if looking for a cinematic spin-off, derivative, plot borrowing or a simple citation, and not finding it in the guide, users are advised to contact the Moving Image Reference staff for additional information. How to Use this Guide Entries are grouped by titles of plays and listed chronologically within the group by release/broadcast date.
