Is Bowen yang Ready to go full move? For the right project it may be very possible. Talk to IndieWire at the red carpet premiere of his latest film“The wedding banquet“Yang shared it even though he only recently participated in A new recording of a classic movieHe would be down to do it again if it was material he really couldn’t get up.
“I would love to redo” female problems, “Yang said, marking John Waters‘Loved the 1974 Dark Comedy. “I don’t know who would play divine or who would play Don Davenport.”
At the same time, Yang does not believe that everything has to be reworked. In fact, he would prefer if more effort went to honor and care for the original material than to try to invent it again.
“I think that’s why things like Criterion Collection are good at preserving these things that need to be preserved because they are kind of enclosed in amber,” said Yang, “and I feel it is sometimes better not to touch these things.”
Yang actually had the privilege of getting into Criterion Recently, where he took the time to praise water as “probably my favorite director ever.” Among his choice was another filmmaker’s subversive divine collaborations, “Several Maniacs.”
“What Divine and Mink Stole do in the church, kind of the most shocking I’ve ever seen,” Yang said in the criterion’s wardrobe. “I’m not a Pearl-Clucher. It takes a lot to shock me. John Waters is a timeless shocker.”
And when he talked about shocks, Yang also told Indiewire that he would not mind offering any his own Fritts if the right role would come along.
“I would make a horror movie if I had to be the killer,” he said. After hearing the “Wedding Banquet” director Andrew Ahn is considering “The Exorcist” for a while, when he is considering a role in it, Yang added, “as long as I get to wear beads.”
Yang, who offers further praise of Ahn, also said: “He is someone who I think is one of our current modern greats. He, in a spirit of LeyenCan work with different genres and also keep the same coteries of people around him. That’s what Ang Lee did. He kept the same cohort of people with him and collaborators with him throughout his career. And I feel that Andrew is intended for the same greatness. “
“The Wedding Bank” is currently in theaters from Bleecker Street.
