Episode 122- George Huang on Weekend in Taipei and Swimming With Sharks
Listen now
Description
You may not see George Huang's name officially credited for as many projects he has his hands in. And while his new film, Weekend in Taipei is a slice of East Asian action pleasure, George's first film was a slice of life about the trials and tribulations of working in Hollywood. Swimming With Sharks is a sharp witted, comically dark tale from the early 90s that spoke volumes about the industry then, but probably echoes heavier today. It was a pleasure talking to George about these two films as well as all the little extra morsels he sent our way.
