Description

On this episode we check out the latest film from John Woo, The Killer, the 2024 remake of his 1989 classic action film, moving the action from Hong Kong to Paris with Nathalie Emmanuel taking the Chow Yun Fat role of a hitman with a heart of gold. Does the film do enough to justify a remake? And does a John Woo film automatically equal good pop in today's pop culture landscape?

Listen to Inheriting from LAist & NPR

"Inheriting" is a show about Asian American and Pacific Islander families, which explores how one event in history can ripple through generations. In doing so, the show seeks to break apart the AAPI monolith and tell a fuller story of these communities. In each episode, NPR’s Emily Kwong sits down with one family and facilitates deeply emotional conversations between their loved ones, exploring how their most personal, private moments are an integral part of history. Through these stories, we show how the past is personal and how to live with the legacies we’re constantly inheriting.
