Peter Hsieh presented at this year’s CAAMFest his first feature film. “Drive All Night” is exactly what its title suggests. After writing several scripts and a long list of plays for the theatre, Hsieh created a thrilling and enigmatic story for the big screen.
The protagonists of “Drive All Night” are Dave and Cara. Dave is a taxi driver in a not specified American city. He works at night and seems to lead a simple, rather lonely life. His acquaintances are two other taxi drivers and the waitress at a diner. That Dave has a crash on her is evident. But something holds him back. Dave is on duty when he gets a call from a woman. She wants him to pick her up at her hotel. Cara is from the start a very brisk and straight-forward character. Therefore, she is actually exactly the opposite to Dave. Together they...

Stars: Yutaka Takeuchi, Lexy Hammonds, Sarah Dumont, Johnny Gilligan | Written and Directed by Peter Hsieh
Drive All Night follows Dave (Yutaka Takeuchi), a reclusive swing-shift taxi driver, whose night takes an unexpected turn after he picks up a mysterious passenger, Cara (Lexy Hammonds), a young woman hiding a dark secret. She makes him drive around the city without a clear destination or motive, and has him accompany her on a number of bizarre excursions – each one stranger than the next. Things get increasingly more surreal the further into the night they go, as Dave begins to learn about Cara and her troubled past. Unbeknownst to the pair, Lenny (Johnny Gilligan), an obsessive hitman, is hunting them, guided by strange visions and instructions from a powerful mob boss. Every place he visits brings him one step closer. Will Lenny catch up to Dave and Cara? What happens when the night ends?...

You will find it and a selection of stills down below. In the clip Dave watches Cara play an old arcade game. It's not much to go by but gives an inkling of each character's personality. It also gives a bit of a sense of style and direction from Hsieh who comes from a stageplay background. Whether he fully transitions into film is...

Drive All Night is a surreal thriller from director Peter Hsieh. Set to show at Cinequest later this month, the film's official trailer shows a taxi cab driver and his mysterious encounter with a young waitress. Together, they take a drive through the city, leading to strange adventures. Hsieh also wrote the script. And, the film stars: Lexy Hammonds (The Mystery of Casa Matusita), Yutaka Takeuchi ("The Defenders"), Johnny Gilligan. Now, a new poster and official trailer are available here. The new poster, much like the trailer, utilizes strange lighting. Highlighting the dreamscape nature of the film, the odd lighting also creates a visual delight. All of the central characters are shown in the graphic, with the city skyline shown in the background. This movie poster reveals only a slice of the film's potential story. The trailer also only reveals just a taste of the plotline. Characters are shown talking in a diner,...

Here’s a brand new and exclusive behind the scenes clip from Nicolas Cage’s latest movie USS Indianapolis: Men of Courage which sees the veteran actor take on the role of Charles McWay in the movie based on a true story.
You may recall Quint’s monologue in 1974 movie Jaws where recounts the demise of the USS Indianapolis after being torpedoed by the Japanese and how all the crew of the Portland-class cruiser were forced into the shark-invested waters beneath…. well this is that very story. The USS Indianapolis was on of the ships used to deliver the atomic payload on Hiroshima and Nagasaki which would eventually see the end to the second world war come to and end in the Pacific.
Actor turned director Mario Van Peebles takes the helm of this astonishing story which is released today. Van Peebles talks us through what we...

As Donald Trump continues to travel the country putting forth a disturbingly xenophobic agenda during his increasingly less quixotic campaign for the presidency, he conveniently ignores the self-evident fact that the United States' history is shaped by the immigrant experience. Two different sets of cultures collide in the upcoming "East Side Sushi," which tells the kind of story which could only happen in America. Read More: Tiff Review: 'Samba' Starring Mar Sy, Tahar Rahim & Charlotte Gainsbourg Starring Diana Elizabeth Torres, Yutaka Takeuchi and Jesus Fuentes and directed by Anthony Lucero, the story follows Juana, a Latino woman trying to raise her son on her own and who lands a job as a kitchen assistant at a local Japanese restaurant.

East Side Sushi Cinequest Reviewed by: Harvey Karten for Shockya. Databased on Rotten Tomatoes. Grade: B+ Director: Anthony Lucero Screenwriter: Anthony Lucero Cast: Diana Elizabeth Torres, Yutaka Takeuchi, Jesus Fuentes Screened at: Critics’ link, NYC, 8/21/15 Opens: September 18, 2015 In presiding over food competitions, the judges look for originality, taste and speed. Film competitions are similar. While you can’t generally taste a movie and since speed does not count (unless the picture is a turkey), originality is prized by all those (meaning people of mature taste) who do not want to see the same plot over and over. “East Side Sushi” is a prime example of an original.
