All-Asian Cast: Asian-American Woman and Generation Gap

all-asian cast: For many older, first-generation Asian immigrants, going to the movies doesn't rank high among hobbies and interests, according to CTV. The crowds, the language barrier and ticket prices are often turnoffs. Younger Asian-Americans have been flocking with their parents to see the first movie in 25 years with an all-Asian cast. But the appeal of Crazy Rich Asians, the story of a culture clash that erupts when an Asian-American woman from New York meets her boyfriend's family in Singapore, has bridged a real-life generation gap. An adaptation of Kevin Kwan's bestselling novel, the rom-com is poised to hit the 100 million mark due to its popularity and a lack of strong competition in the next month, com Score senior media analyst Paul Dergarabedian said. Earning more than 40 million since its Aug. 15 release, the film already has a sequel in development. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
