I am the grandson of royceoytube and this is my great-grandmother's film. I am astonished at how much the film spread throughout the media. And I am proud of this outstanding accomplishment.
really?! Did you hear about this movie before it was unearthed? Did your great-grandmother ever talk about it and/or her other forays into the then unchartered land of filmmaking?
Is your grandmother still around? I'd really love to communicate with her. I'm a film scholar with special interest in early Asian American cinema. And I work in Bay Area. Thank you!
@royceoytube You should be proud of your family's legacy! I only wish more eyes had seen this film back when it was made. Perhaps racism would've been a bit tampered in this country if people could see that our Asian immigrants had the same experiences as our European new arrivals. My hometown still deals with this issue today, only the specific Asian and European countries are different.

I hope they plan on putting this movie on DVD.
