Journal of Canadian Studies: "High octane kung fu action": Examining racialization in The 2nd Toronto Reel Asian International Film Festival and Fantasia '98: Toronto Festival Although the makers of look Sing, Denny Chan and Michelle Lee, attempt to comment on the state of Chinese-Canadian identity and the stigma of being "jook sing," the film ultimately reinforces the idea that Chinese identity is self-evident and must be acknowledged and accepted without question.

In her comments on her motives for making look Sing, Lee makes it clear that her Chinese identity is, simply, that she was born Chinese: "It is our ethnicity, it is our blood, it is just what we are; people look at us and they see someone Chinese" (Lee). www.findarticles.com /p/articles/mi_qa3683/is_200010/ai_n8911394/pg_3   (1379 words)
