By Marshall Shaffer Verified| Slant Magazine Verified When filmmaker Andrew Ahn was eight, his mother rented Ang Lee’s 1993 film The Wedding Banquet from a video store owing to its status as an Asian film that white people were interested in. Unbeknownst to them, the titular wedding is but a front for a bisexual Taiwanese immigrant to get his green card and remain in America. The moment, something akin to an origin story, was also an awakening for a filmmaker who’d take particular interest in depicting the gay Asian-American experience on screen.

Following the longest hiatus of his half-century career, Cronenberg has emerged with a mournful and masterful one-two punch in the 2020s.
