The Farewell

2019, directed by Lulu Wang

Derek and I moved to Porto in February of 2022, and I was excited to have some new locations from which to film! This was the most recent film I ever showed at The Rainier Club. I have to admit that I “phoned it in” a little on this one, relying a lot more on the behind-the-scenes interviews from the DVD. We were still in the process of unpacking and getting the new house set up, and I just didn’t have enough time to do all the research I would normally do. Still, I think it came out okay.
