Join The Billings Public Library Film Society in celebrating Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month with a discussion of the 2018 Romantic Comedy/Drama, Crazy Rich Asians. Based on Kevin Kwan’s novel of the same name, the film follows a Chinese-American professor who travels to meet her boyfriend's family and is surprised to discover they are among the richest in Singapore.
The film has been lauded for being the first by a major Hollywood studio in nearly 30 years to feature a majority cast of Chinese descent in a modern setting. The film grossed $174.5 million in the United States and Canada and received many accolades including a 2019 Critics Choice Award and a 2019 Teen Choice Award.
