Hello! Crit Club is back to take a look at 1982's Chan Is Missing. It's an ambitious amalgamation of a movie that's both a detective story about two men looking for a disappeared business partner, and a exploration/celebration of the many Asian-American communities in San Francisco's Chinatown. Listen in and hear what we thought of this groundbreaking movie and its place in film history.

And don't forget to listen in next week, where we'll discuss Paul Schrader's 1990 erotic thriller The Comfort of Strangers!

Our dear co-host Wizard Chris had some audio troubles during this recording. We did our best to smooth them out into a hopefully listenable state. Thanks for your understanding!
