The Golden Globe folks really need to change their antiquated, discriminatory 51% English rule for the Best Picture category. This is an American film, by an American production company, with an American director (graduated from Yale, I might add), American actors, filmed in Oklahoma etc. Meanwhile British foreign films can be nominated for Best Picture - although NOT American - because they speak English. Ex. The Queen, Slumdog Millionaire, The King's Speech, The Pianist, and so much more. ...Oh, and also Quentin Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterd" was more than 50% in German and French, but it was nominated for Best Picture. So discriminatory.
It’s actually not hard to believe!!! This has been an issue for years! These award ceremonies (especially the Oscars), lean white 95% of the time! Cannot “believe” he said that. Very glad for him!
I watched Minari and the first impression was that this movie cannot be more than THE American story, a real story of immigrant family pursuing American dreams. This movie was fully funded by an American company, written and directed by American, acted by American (except for the mom and grandma) This movie got categorized as Foreign Language Film Award because it ended up written in Korean Language 51% Why does Foreign “Language” Film Award have to be exist anyway? The Golden Globes is for American tv shows and American films. Due to this weird rule, some “foreign” movies but written in English were able to win/nominated for other awards while this “American” movie wasn’t. “Minari” was the sole American movie vying for this year’s Globes foreign language category, nominated alongside “Another Round” (Denmark), “La Llorona” (Guatemala), “The Life Ahead” (Italy) and “Two of Us” (France). None of the nominees was permitted to enter the best motion picture drama or comedy races. I think it makes more sense the award should be changed to Foreign Film Award or just remove the category.
Minari just came out today Korea. I am going to watch it right after work. I booked the movie ticket already with popcorn and cola!!! Im very proud of him as a Asian American.
I’m on my way home after watching “MINARI”. I can’t stop myself thinking of his face to not cry during fighting with Yeri(Monica) Steve in the movie is just a father for everyone.
Steven's performance was excellent. And the fact that his parents also moved to America just enhanced his performance since he has a better understanding of the hardships that can be introduced.
just saw the film with my parents. i quite enjoyed that this movie focused more on the family immigrant experience and the innocence and sweetness of it without racism playing the main antagonist tearing the family apart. feel like there's enough movies and stories that cover that all too well these days, blaming such and such for such and such. i was super impressed by steven yeun as well. superb portrayal of the typical korean father. my parents wanted to see the film b/c of the grandma, who apparently is a famous korean actress from their youth.
Minari is a must see film. Anyone can learn many things about the American dream through this film, and the cast was spectacular in my opinion. I thoroughly enjoyed that the film had a mix of English and Korean dialogue, since I'm a Mexican-American young man trying to become fluent in Korean. Plus, I found this movie to be very similar to the experiences that Hispanic immigrants may have when starting a new life in the U.S. For example, the strong sense of taking care of the family, preserving cultural customs, using what you have, valuing hard work, and adapting to American society that may not understand all your customs. It reminded me so much of my grandparents when they came to our country, seriously. If you haven't seen this film yet, please do. I really hope they continue with a part 2 since the performances were that good. Give a thumbs up for part 2! lol
@Paul Viviliyam you mean the Koreans depicted in the movie are Christians? You might not be aware there are a lot of Christians in Korea and many Koreans who migrated to the US are Christians.
@Paul Viviliyam This is not a Christian movie. However, the director is Christian and the film portrays elements of spirituality in it. It is a beautiful film :)
@@Toocoolforschool573 please don't. Buy the film if you really enjoyed the movie. The filmmakers who worked hard on it get no money if you watch it illegally.
It wasn't until Bruce made a few SUCCESSFUL films outside of Hollywood when he finally got to do his first film in America I think (Enter the Dragon). In one of the documentaries about him, he was caught in the middle between the U.S. and his Chinese background. He struggled in America and overseas since sometimes both cultures viewed him as different before he became a successful star.
Any Korean here noticing how Michael pronounced minari right (in Korean pronounciation) every time he said it? 👍Did somebody taught him that or did he have a korean gf or what? lol
I have a Korean-American friend who works on the crew of Good Morning America. She said there’s quite a few Asian Americans who work on the crew with her and throughout ABC so I imagine he asked one of them how to correctly pronounce it
Can someone please help me with a particular discussion. I just read somewhere that he is the first Asian American person to be nominated for best actor Oscar. The American part I get, but sir Ben Kingsley is of Indian ancestry and he won the award. During the inauguration, I believe I heard several commentators saying Vice President Harris was of south Asian ancestry, and she is party Indian.
At '1.10', it was stated no Asian American had been nominated for an Oscar. This statement is incorrect. In the film Sayonara (1957), starring the late Marlon Brando, an Asian American by the name of "Miyoshi Umeki" won an Oscar for Best Supporting role in the film. To date, no Asian American has ever won an Oscar in an acting role. Miyoshi Umeki's was the only one so far (more than sixty-four ago now!).
oh yo i finally realized where i remember this dude from. I realize he's from that one joke PSA video from 10 years ago calling you gay if you do anything.
Minari is not the victim here. Another Round is the victim. Those Americans tricked us again. Put their own movie as foreign film and win an award for it.
He seems like hes trying to shy away from his communities achievements. Its okay to ambrace your cultural achievements on national stage dude. Whats up with the skiddish responses? Weird. Like hes ashames of being an Asian actor or what?
Seriously. That year in 1984, TWO Asian actors were nominated for Best Supporting Actor. What he means is no Asian has been nominated for Best Lead Actor, but just like a lot of things, GMA is uninformed don't know what they're talking about.
I don't think Steven deserves an Oscar. Not even a nomination. Look at the image at 1:27. Even his hairstyle in the movie is same as this interview. It's not of that era. His Korean accent is also wrong. Steven needs to learn from Will Patton on how to prepare for a character. The movie was ruined by Steven and saved by Yoon and Patton.
Don't mind this moron...he's just trolling the comment section trying to get a normal response so he can then unload w/ a racist response. Hahaha...he's dumb and predictable. Lol...bruh if you're going to be racist...be funny and original. You're just unoriginal and dumb. But hey, you're dumb AF so I can see why you'd be a racist. Fkn inbred. Lolol

Not really. He kept saying “mi-NAH-ri” and it is pronounced “MEE-NAH-ri”. His emphasis is on the wrong syllable so he’s not really saying it right.

I think Pat Moria was nominated for Karate Kid. Personally I thought he should have won! Shot out to Michael on his pronunciation of the movie!
Sad thing is chadwick boseman will win no matter what due to his tragic passing
George didn't understand the family connection there.
He looks like a teenager to me.
shouldnt the movie title be pronounced “MI- nari” with an emphasis on the “mi-“ ? Idk, that’s just how it’s pronounced in Korean..
Hmm really? I don't think there's intonation in Korean language but I could be wrong.
And honestly I was just glad that they didn't put the R sound in it lol
this guy has got it made, oscar buzz, top tier movies in resume, nepotism. He doesn't even have to try anymore.
The Walking Dead for sure helped Steven kick off his career and hope he continues to put together great work.
