@GookFilm was terrific. So tense, but so warm in parts. @justinchon has really made something special. Check out my review below & then see it in UK cinemas so I can talk about it with someone! theupcoming.co.uk/2018/03/14…

Pushing this out again, because @GookFilm was really really good. There's a really interesting & nuanced conversation about Korean-American & African American relations within the film. Would be interesting to hear the dialogue that comes forth from Gook. teapawt.net/MarkisMark/status/9746…

GOOK is a movie that tells the story of a Korean shopkeeper in the middle of the Rodney King riots. It has a superb soundtrack, touches of humour & amazing performances. Loved it. 8/10 @GookFilm

On Kanopy now: @JustinChon's Sundance Audience Award Winner @GookFilm. I highly recommend this Jarmusch-esque character piece that aptly balances comedy and drama, with stunning black & white cinematography. kanopystreaming.com/wayf/vid…
