Rewatched #RogersAndHammerstein's #TheFlowerDrumSong (1961) again yesterday.

Many #AsianAmericans, like me, have a love/hate relationship with this movie because of all of the #Asian & #Chinese stereotypes that it portrays & because most of the actors in the film weren't even Chinese.

The film is also pretty misogynistic & gender limiting too which is consistent with the times.

That said, I remember when how excited my mother & the Chinese community in #SFChinatown were when the movie was released because it was the 1st time that the Chinese were portrayed in the film with anything close to our reality & because it was the 1st & only film (until #TheJoyLuckClub (1993) in which the cast was almost entirely #Asian. . . .

It's nonetheless an important film to watch in terms of understanding how Asians are under represented in American media.

The Wiki synopsis of the film is pretty good & worth reading if you have any interest in the film & Asian American media.

UC Berkeley: What counts as ‘Asian American literature,’ anyway?. “Long Le-Khac, an assistant professor of ethnic studies at UC Berkeley, just published a 1,900-entry dataset that he hopes will be used to investigate which works are discussed as ‘Asian American’ in scholarly circles — and who that leaves out.”
