When the first trailer of "Joy Ride" came out with a little Asian girl telling a racist playground bully "F*K YOU" followed by a punch in the nose, we all knew this was a movie like no other. The stellar cast of some of today's most talented API actresses and comedians is a dream team that takes audiences on a hilarious, raunchy and, at times, touching journey. The added bonus...they break down all the stereotypes that Asians, and especially Asian women, are rule-abiding, shy and lack humor. We say "Hell NO" and so does the mastermind behind "Joy Ride", director and co-writer, Adele Lim of "Crazy Rich Asians" and "Raya and the Last Dragon" fame. Adele's unapologetic, no holds barred style has helped her push through barriers in every way and when she wants to get shit done, there's no stopping her. May, Kelly and Tamlyn go on a joy ride with Adele in this episode to talk about everything from the new movie to her directorial debut to the need for more women of color directors. And she also shares how she made a 67-year-old white man cry at a screening!
NOTE: "Joy Ride" opens in theatres on July 7
