Description:Email It's rare that a film by and about Asian-Americans gets national exposure, so there's been a lot of anticipation surrounding this weekend's release of Justin Lin's Better Luck Tomorrow. Better Luck Tomorrow depicts the lives of a group of supposedly perfect kids who live a double life of crime that starts with selling tests but spirals into drug-dealing and death. Ironically, the less-than-savory portrait has been winning the film more support from the Asian-American community, rather than losing it. It's clear that the film challenges a perception — the image of the well-mannered, law-abiding, overachieving Asian-American.
