  Crazy Rich Asians 2018

  ★★★★★ Watched by Annie Ning 08 Aug 2018 6

  what felt like a long, incredibly luxurious (and overdue) exhale:
  SEEING a casual conversation between friends over FOOD that isn't white!
  HEARING MUSIC my parents listened to scoring a wedding! a party! the end credits of a whole-ass movie!
  CHEERING for appearances (that cameo in the end credits !!!!!) made by celebrities that would NEVER otherwise have a big cameo in which a partially (maybe even majority) white audience GASPS.

  these are the most natural things in every single movie…
