THE GRACE LEE PROJECT in LA


Lots of Asian American film news this weekend. First, THE GRACE LEE PROJECT opens today in LA for a one-week run. Bring a Grace Lee and get 2-for-1 tickets!

Here's a link to the LA Times review: calendarlive.com: MOVIE REVIEW - 'The Grace Lee Project'

And for those of you who might remember that Grace said her next project was about zombies, well, here's the story on that: Variety's Festivals & Markets: 'Zombie' speaks English for Korean

Full details about the LA run are below:

THE GRACE LEE PROJECT OPENS EXCLUSIVELY IN LOS ANGELES AT THE LAEMMLE FAIRFAX FOR ONE WEEK ONLY ON MARCH 31-APRIL 6

Do you know Grace Lee? Is she a nice, piano playing overachiever or a hell raiser who tried to burn down your high school? When Korean-American filmmaker Grace Lee was growing up in Missouri, she was the only Grace Lee she knew. But when she moved to New York and California, everyone she met seemed to know "another Grace Lee."

Pursuing the moving target of Asian American female identity, director Grace Lee plunges into a clever, highly unscientific investigation into all those Grace Lees who fit the stereotype and those who break the mold. The Grace Lee Project puts a hilarious spin on the eternal question "What's in a name?"

Watch the trailer at www.gracelee.net. Showtimes at IndieIn.com

Laemmle Fairfax Theaters
