Sci-Fi Bulletin: Exploring the Universes of SF, Fantasy, Horror and Spy-fi!

The new SF movie After Yang – based on a short story by Alexander Weinstein – is out now, and is a slow, contemplative look at grief and what makes us human. The movie’s director/writer/editor Kogonada and star Justin H. Min chatted about what sets it apart.

Kogonada: What actors do is almost like magic to me. You create the scenario and you have all these ideas but I think the best actors are always surprising and they’re always offering you layers that maybe you couldn’t ever write because there is some limitation to words. Suddenly in this dimensionality what someone like Justin or Colin brings into a scene…there aren’t words for it, truthfully there aren’t words for that and so I’m very excited about those surprises and how we’re going to approach this space.

Justin: I’ve spent the last few years reading these very intense action-packed scripts and there was something about the quietness that K was just talking about and the confidence to be what it was as simply as it was, that really struck me.
