This “Third Act” film seems like it will be a blockbuster. I have been an admirer of Bob Nakamura and his wife Karen Ishizuka since the 1970s. Their work on films, books, museum exhibits and more have been essential building blocks for Asian Am Studies. Son Tad is also immensely talented filmmaker.
Wonderful review for Tad, my nephew, and his film 'Third Act,' which premiered at Sundance.

I just found a poem I wrote 45 years ago in the final issue of Bridge Magazine. Do you think its observations are still relevant?
