Chloe Bennet as LANA LEE in Interior Chinatown

[sakebytheriver]

Interior Chinatown, it's about gentrification, it's about generational trauma, it's about community building, it's about racist scapegoating, it's about police corruption, it's about the pressures of immigrant parenthood, it's about the different expectations for different children and the way it can break them, it's about the meat grinder of capitalism replacing and reusing the lower class like nameless murder victims in a police procedural, it's about the system and its inescapablity, it's about the falacy of the American Dream, it's about urban decay and being abandoned by economic forces, it's about cultural appropriation and tokenism, it's about grief, it's about Jimmy O. Yang kicking ass and looking sexy

he literally main charactered too close to the sun. he used to be so invisible that the door physically wouldn't open for him to be part of the scene. he was out of focus, cut out of the shot. he was physically barred from stepping foot in the precinct. but he found a way to use that, to leverage his status as a background character to get a foot in the door. he delivered food, he replaced tech guy without anyone batting an eye. but he pushed it too far, because now he's The Character. everyone is saying his name and everyone knows his face and his story and they have control of it now. now that he's in the spotlight they have to prod pluck and primp and make sure everything is in it's rightful spot. the show must go on. the story restructures itself around him in order to get to the finale on time. and now they're casting him in the villain role and jamming together random pieces of the puzzle so it all adds up and the show has a satisfying ending..... I'm....

Taika Waititi about Interior Chinatown (x)

[gleeandshame]

In episode three, "Tech Guy," when Willis unites with all the ignored people / background characters, the message was if we feel alone and unspecial all we need to do is treat people with humanity and care, and your connections make you someone.

I know he was using them for his own gain at first, but when he’s invited to sit for lunch with Felix, Randall, and Janice, there’s such a genuine sweet moment of belonging. Something real outside the procedural drama they're stuck in.

Can we please talk about how Chloe's makeup department went from ignoring to accentuating her Asian features?
