Once Upon a Rub
Rachel Lu
Every ambitious Dim Sum girl has her day. Last Friday, I was at the premiere of “Rub”, a short film directed by Raymond Yeung (Cut Sleeve Boys) screening at Columbia University Film Festival.
Working with Ray was delicious. He gently squeezed, enticed and extracted just the right juices from the actors, then blended into a masterful cinematic smoothie.
The result was a stunning and moving story that the audience gulped down. We were proud.
Afterwards one man inquired, “Are you a real actor?” He thought I was plucked off the streets of Chinatown and played myself in the movie.
I mean OMG didn’t he see my entourage? Thank you.
