Post Concussion Syndrome Is the Hidden Epidemic
$19.95
I know I'm partial to this movie, because I made it - but, Amazon has asked me to review it so here goes. Countless people, both young and old get concussions every day, many times without realizing it. If you or someone you know begins to change their habits and their behaviors then you need to aquaint yourself with the informnation in this film. Treating post concussion syndrome is rather simple and inexpensive, but not treating it can ruin a life and many times leads to suicide. This has happened to my family and to the families of friends. Please don't let it happen to you.

Post Concussion [VHS]
$59.95
Before Justin Lin's "Better Luck Tomorrow," and the current wave of new Asian-American writers and directors was Daniel Yoon's "Post-Concussion." It's tempting to place him at the beginning of the interest in Asian cinema of the past few years, but I believe this work belongs with the tradition of American independents in the vein of writer-directors such as Spike Lee, Kevin Smith, and Rick Linklater. Much like these filmmakers, Daniel Yoon took what resources he had (some of which came as a settlement from an accident he was involved in - shades of Robert Rodriguez's drug test fundraising for "El Mariachi.) to make his first film, and tell a story he had to tell.

Filled with wit, feeling, and a loose, improvisational style, "Post-Concussion" shows its low budget roots in every frame, yet much like the first works of Smith and Lee, there is an undeniable energy and intelligence that informs this movie. Also refreshing is that, unlike many first films from Asian-American directors, though the protagonist (Yoon) is Asian, this is not a film about the Asian experience per se, but rather the experience of being a human being at a crossroads - in short, a film about a universal experience, told from a unique perspective.

It's been over seven years since Daniel Yoon's first film, and I recently heard he's preparing his second feature, also from an original script. I don't know much more than that, but if it's anything like his first film, I know that fans and audiences will be in for a treat.

See it for yourself. "Post-Concussion," a first film from a talented new filmmaker, and hopefully not the last.
