The Accidental Getaway Driver
On this episode, we check out the independent film The Accidental Getaway Driver, which is finally getting its theatrical run after turning heads 2 years ago at the Sundance Film Festival. The film is based on the true story of an elderly Vietnamese private taxi driver who gets taken hostage by three escaped prisoners. Featuring some powerful performances from veteran actors along with strong and competent direction, we're excited to finally be able to sit down and discuss this film!

Don't miss an all AAPI production of HENRY VI: A Trilogy in Two Parts at The Public in NYC
The National Asian American Theatre Company’s acclaimed production of HENRY VI: A TRILOGY IN TWO PARTS brings an all-AANHPI cast to The Public Theater for a decades-spanning saga of Joan of Arc, warring dukes, and the bloody birth of the War of the Roses. Adapted by Stephen Brown-Fried, this is Shakespeare like you've never experienced it. Part 1: Foreign Wars opens with a king dead, an infant on the throne, and a country already coming apart at the seams. Part 2: Civil Strife picks up nearly 30 years later...and the bloodbath is yet to come. Simmering feuds explode into the War of the Roses, and nothing will ever be the same. Performances from June 9 through July 19! Use code H6BC for $59 tickets!
