Shownotes

This episode is a straight-up lovefest, as Ada and Brian invite Richard Wong and H.P. Mendoza to talk about their first film, 2006's Colma: The Musical. This is Ada's third time interviewing them about the same movie, yet she learns so many new things. Richard and H.P. talk West Side Story homages in Colma and try their best not to bash La La Land, but can't help themselves. H.P. talks about watching Flower Drum Song and seeing Asian Americans in a musical for the first time. And Brian says that there still has not been a better American film musical made since Colma came out over a decade ago, so it must be true, cause Brian is never dramatic about these things.

Season 3 of Saturday School is about Asian American Music Movies.
