Ÿ Reviews must be at least 500 words, but no more than 1000 words. (Please provide a word count at the end of the review.)

Your second review will focus on any one of the feature-length films you have viewed in class so far. These films, created by Asian Pacific Americans, are meant to illustrate the talent and variation in the APA experience. Please remember that while you may want to watch the film a second or third time for the review, the film may not be readily accessible. Should you need to view a film multiple times, you are responsible for accessing the film that you choose to review. (Note: I am not obligated to let students borrow my films.) The films we have seen so far (this will be updated periodically)
