Shownotes
On this episode of Good Pop, in honor of APAHM and the recently announced remake, we check out the classic Ang Lee romantic dramedy from 1993 THE WEDDING BANQUET. Does this 31 year old film about generational differences and family expectations hold up today as good pop? And if it does, what does that say about the Asian American films that have come out since?

Don't miss an all AAPI production of HENRY VI: A Trilogy in Two Parts at The Public in NYC
NAATCO returns to The Public with their production of Shakespeare's trilogy, HENRY VI: A TRILOGY IN TWO PARTS, adapted and directed by Stephen Brown-Fried. Condensed into two parts and performed in rep, experience this saga of a nation spinning wildly out of control. Part 1: Foreign Wars kicks off with the funeral of King Henry V, leaving his infant son on the throne and sending the country into decades of spiraling chaos both abroad and at home. Part 2: Civil Strife picks up nearly 30 years later, as nascent domestic feuds rapidly metastasize into the full-blown civil war known as the War of the Roses.
