Nico Muhly Interview For Pachinko | BGR Exclusive Apple bet big on their new show, Pachinko, and that bet has paid off. It has been called "redefining," and "extraordinary" in terms of both beauty and drama. The first season begins in 1910's Korea and follows a family across generations and around the globe. While composer Nico Muhly (The Reader, Kill Your Darlings) admits tying these places and times together was a daunting assignment, he is more than equal to the task. Muhly deftly uses his love of Anglican choral music and American minimalism to craft an original and emotional score for the 8-hour saga. Nico took time from his busy schedule to talk with me about his Emmy nominated work, Throughline, as well as Apple TV+'s Pachinko. We discussed everything from scoring and recording during the pandemic to grappling with the history of the Japanese occupation of Korea. In light of the high praise, Pachinko has recently been picked up for season two. I sincerely hope Nico returns to score it. The music is always emotionally stirring and sometimes aching. For those of you that may be curious, my favorite songs were Hansu Sees Sunja, Packing and Kimchi. Pachinko stars Academy Award-winner Yuh-Jung Youn, Lee Minho, Jin Ha, and Minha Kim, Pachinko premiered March 25. All episodes are currently available. Jonesy also does a solo review of Disney/Pixar's Lightyear
Pachinko is a deeply intimate, yet hugely expansive multi-generational historical saga on Apple TV+. Adapted from Min Jin Lee's 2017 novel, the series features several intersecting characters and storylines, but focuses mainly on Sunja, a Korean woman whose family suffers under Japanese imperial rule. With an impressive cast including Lee Min Ho and Oscar-winner Yuh-Jung Youn, Pachinko depicts Sunja throughout her life amid conditions of poverty, bigotry and institutionalized injustice against Koreans.
In the new Apple TV+ series “Pachinko,” adapted from the bestselling novel by Min Jin Lee, every generation is in dialogue, either indirectly or directly, with the ones that come before and after it. That's according to Soo Hugh, the series' creator, showrunner and writer. “Pachinko,” a sweeping multi-generational family drama, features the story of Sunja, played by Oscar winner Yuh-Jung Youn, an impoverished young woman who suffers through the 20th century Japanese occupation of Korea, and later with her family faces of life of hardship and discrimination in Japan. We'll talk to Hugh about the creative challenges of adapting a beloved novel and what it's like to create spaces for the telling of diverse stories.
The Oscar race may have become slightly predictable by the night of the awards, but the award show itself, as the world knows, was anything but. So of course we've got to talk a little bit about The Slap, but more importantly, Best Supporting Lupita. And speaking of supporting, Lady Gaga and Yuh-Jung Youn were Best Supporting Angels, and Liza's matter of fact announcement of this year's Best Picture winner was a delightful way to end a weird night in Hollywood.

Minari didn't rake in bucks at the box office earlier in this weird year and having to read pesky subtitles still turns a lot of people off, but this movie is very worth your time. It's simply a charm offensive. Lee Isaac Chung's beautiful and relatable family film is even more relatable if you've ever struggled to make ends meet while also trying to live your (maybe impossible) dream. Chung's entire cast is remarkable, but the outstanding work done by Yuh-Jung Youn and Alan Kim as grandma & grandson is the key to the entire project. We just love that kid!

In this episode we discuss one of this years Oscar Nominees for Best Picture and Yuh-Jung Youn the winner of The Best Supporting Actress in “Minari” (2020); The Italian comedy “Beate” (2018) about a plucky group who work for a lingerie company that is about to be out sourced, teaming up with the Sisters of Amida Convent they try and build their own company; The Horror Sci-Fi, “Attack The Block” ( 2011) Starring a very young John Boyega who heads a teen gang in South London that save their neighborhood and maybe the world from some really ferocious Aliens; And finally by popular request we discuss “The Raid 2” (2014), the epic sequel to the Indonesian classic Martial Arts film “The Raid” (2011).
A Korean-American family starts a small farm in Arkansas in the 1980s. Yuh-Jung Youn won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for this sweet, subtle family film. The post Take Two: “Minari” (PG-13) appeared first on KKFI.
“The nuances of the Korean family takes you back to being in a new environment, trying to fit in../..but it felt like an American family story as well.” The Oscars have come and gone, but what remains is how we feel about MINARI - the critically acclaimed film that had SIX nominations and Yuh-Jung Youn’s win for Best Supporting Actress (#TeamGrandma). It was a big year for Modern Minorities...at the movies. History was made with Chloe Zhao becoming the first woman of color to win Best Director, Viola Davis is now the most nominated Black Actress, Riz Ahmed was the first Muslim nominated for Best actor, and of course...MINARI So along with Friends-of-the-Pod Jieun Kim-Kirtley AND Jon Pollock - we thought we’d have some fun talking MINARI, and the other Modern Minority-led films, actors, and big screen artists that made their mark. ALSO, we answer the age old question of who’s hotter - Steven Yeun or Riz Ahmed (spoiler alert, it’s Oscar Isaac =) FRIENDS OF THE POD Jon Pollock: modmypod.com/episodes/ep-35-jon-pollock-says-ciao-andiamo-legwx-lgphb-9j8lc-sx4fn-yl3p8 Jieun Kim Kirtley: modmypod.com/episodes/ep-38-jieun-kirtleys-kids-learn-taekwondo-korean MENTIONS: Chloe Zhao acceptance speech (2021): youtu.be/hagrJurgOqU Yuh-Jung Youn’s acceptance speech (2021): youtu.be/syrGt0fpffY Life is Beautiful acceptance speech (1999): youtu.be/8cTR6fk8frs BOOK (Jon): Far from the Tree (Andrew Solomon): goodreads.com/book/show/13547504-far-from-the-tree KIDS’ BOOK (Raman): The Ugly Vegetables (Grace Lin): goodreads.com/book/show/240144.The_Ugly_Vegetables SONG: “You’re Welcome” (Moana): youtu.be/79DijItQXMM
The 93rd annual Academy Awards made history even before the Oscars were handed out on Sunday night. After years of criticism for a lack of diversity, this year’s nominees contained a record number of people of color. The awards themselves also reflected a more diverse group. Chloe Zhao took home the best directing trophy for her film “Nomadland,” becoming only the second woman to claim the title and the first-ever woman of color. Yuh-Jung Youn won best supporting actress for her work in Lee Isaac Chung’s “Minari.” But is that enough? Critics say it’s a welcome start, but more needs to be done. In particular, they say white gatekeepers need to be willing to diversify who gets to tell their stories and how they get marketed. Thursday, MPR News host Kerri Miller welcomed two guests who have been watching Hollywood’s attempts at diversity and inclusion. Is the entertainment business ready to face its persistent racial inequities? Guests: Nancy Wang Yuen is a sociologist at Biola University and an author of “Reel Inequality: Hollywood Actors and Racism.” Franklin Leonard is a film and television producer and founder of the Black List.

It was an Academy Awards like no other. The iconic Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles was swapped for multiple locations around the world, the iconic red carpet only had a handful of guests and photographers, and strict protocols meant guests had to wear masks whenever they weren't on camera. The Covid-19 pandemic has had a massive impact on the film industry and this includes in the way that the Oscars would be celebrated. Despite all of that, some things remain the same. There's always someone who makes a speech that goes from sincere to hilarious and, kind of cringe. Step forward Best Supporting Actor winner Daniel Kaluuya. And, we learnt that even at the biggest moment of your career, there's always time to lust after Brad Pitt. Yuh-Jung Youn who became the first Korean actor to win an Oscar when she took the prize for Best Supporting Actress, took a minute to appreciate the presence of the eternal heart-throb. It was a groundbreaking nights in lots of ways, Chloé Zhao became the first woman of colour to win for Best Director and the second woman ever. Anthony Hopkins became the oldest winner of an Best Actor award. Gordon Hayden had all the news and backstage goss, and he joined Dermot and Dave to fill them in.

Oscar-nominated "Minari" stars Steven Yeun and Yuh-Jung Youn talk to Variety's Jazz Tangcay about their film and its realistic and authentic portrayal of a Korean American immigrant family. But first, on the Awards Circuit roundtable, we go through our final predictions for this year’s Oscar winners.

From the Vox Quick Hits archive (Feb. 19, 2021): Vox film critic Alissa Wilkinson and critic-at-large Emily VanDerWerff recommend Minari. Minari is the story of Korean immigrants Jacob (Steven Yeun) and Monica (Yeri Han) who move their two small children (Noel Kate Cho and Alan S. Kim) from California to Arkansas in pursuit of Jacob's dream of farming. But Jacob and Monica's marriage is on the rocks, a circumstance that doesn't improve the way they hoped it would when Monica's mother (Yuh Jung Youn) comes to stay with them. Written and directed by Lee Isaac Chung (Munyurangabo, Lucky Life) and set in the 1980s Ozarks, Minari feels deeply personal. It's both a family drama seen through the eyes of a Korean American boy and a moving tale of love and loss in the American heartland, exquisitely told. Read Alissa's review of Minari here.
