Wayne Wang (traditional Chinese: 王穎; simplified Chinese: 王颖; pinyin: Wáng Yǐng; Jyutping: Wong4 Wing6; born January 12, 1949) is a Hong Kong-born American film director.
Wang was born and raised in Hong Kong, and named after his father's favorite movie star, John Wayne. When he was 17, his parents arranged for him to move to the United States to study, to prepare for medical school. Wang, however, soon put this plan aside when his 'eyes were completely opened' by new experience, and as he turned to the arts, studying film and television at California College of Arts and Crafts in Oakland.
Chan Is Missing (1982), Dim Sum: A Little Bit of Heart (1985), and Eat a Bowl of Tea (1989) established his reputation. He is best known for The Joy Luck Club (1993), Maid in Manhattan (2002), and the independent features Smoke (1995) and Anywhere but Here (1999). At the 2007 Toronto International Film Festival, Wang premiered two feature films, A Thousand Years of Good Prayers and The Princess of Nebraska, as well as appearing in the Arthur Dong documentary film Hollywood Chinese.

On August 20, 2007, Wayne Wang and his co-director Rich Wong started shooting their contribution to our Chinatown Film Project. Ten short films are being commissioned from New York based filmmakers, e.g. Wayne Wang, who are asked to show us what Chinatown looks like and means to them. These ten New York films will be exhibited with the videos of our YouTube channel as an inaugural public program of MoCA's expansion, slated for May 2008. In these behind-the-scene clips, Wayne talks about the concept behind their film, a musical tribute of sorts to the working class of Chinatown.

In A THOUSAND YEARS OF GOOD PRAYERS, elderly Mr. Shi (Henry O) arrives from China to spend time with his divorced daughter, Yilan (Faye Yu), hoping to help her sort out her life in this strange new country. That, after all, is his duty as a parent. Yilan, although polite, doesn't feel like being the dutiful daughter. Unlike Geraldine in DIM SUM, Yilan can't wait to be rid of her parent, whose need to pry into and control her like becomes a nuisance - even if he does lovingly cook up multi-course meals for her at the end of the workday. Where sharing meals served as familial and cultural bonding in DIM SUM, it is seen as an intrusion for Yilan, who longs to have her own private life back again. Despite going through Yilan's things while she's at work and trying to pry information from he...
In 'Snow Flower and the Secret Fan' director Wayne Wang has tried to keep to the spirit of the story in Lisa See's best-selling novel of the same name, which spans several generations. Wang shifts the bulk of the action to modern day Shanghai, with two contemporary women replacing See's original characters. "It's probably more re-imagining, because the book is like some 400 pages. It has so many details and events that are important. So the trick is really to condense it enough but still be very true to the essence of the book," he said. ... http://www.euronews.net/

Blue in the Face (1995) Watching:https://goo.gl/otc9H1 Wayne Wang's follow-up movie to Smoke presents a series of improvisational situations strung together to form a pastiche of Brooklyn's diverse ethnicity, offbeat humor, and essential humanity. Many of the same characters inhabiting Auggie Wren's Brooklyn Cigar Store in Smoke return here to expound on their philosophy of smoking, relationships, baseball, New York, and Belgian Waffles.

I spent my life twenty years in the basin
My only friend was a man of much more
He lied with power in his weary eyes 'till day came
And all at once I knew his name
Giles of the river...comin' in to make my precious day
Giles of the river...comin' in to tell one tale and take
My breath away...and he's on his way
He took me down through good times late departed
And through the world as it was and will be
By bad self I watched you as you hung your head out my door
But you won't grieve me no more
