The Sixth Sense is not a good white film. Insomnia is not a good white film. They're just good films. So why we can't we have good films that happen to have black people, or Asian, or Latino, or any other minority group in them? ↗

I'm eager to get away from them. ↗

The first initial feeling, at least for me, was to go out and play well and hopefully win and have the Asian community be even more proud. ↗

I always think it's really hard if you are Asian or Chinese to be really in Hollywood. There are not so many really great characters for you. ↗
