Last month, channelAPA.com had a chance to sit down and chop it up with “The People I’ve Slept With” director Quentin Lee. We talk about how the film came about, the deleted scenes, and audience reactions to the film. The film is still on the film festival circuit, but it recently got picked up for a TV deal. In promoting the film, The People I’ve Slept With used a variety of tools including music videos (I Like Boys and Crazy F*cked Up Bitch) and behind the scenes footage of what it’s like to promote your own film through Film Hustler.
Quentin Lee is already working on upcoming projects including Model Minority and Optimum Disaster. Both are serial killer based films. He’s into dark/ horror material. To see an example, check out his graphic novel Campus Ghost Story, which he describes as Pulp Fiction meets Sixth Sense.
If you haven’t seen the film, be sure to look for it at you local Asian American film festival. Next up it will be at the 2010 Los Angeles Asian American Pacific Film Festival.
