"my dinner with jj" where ilya and jj go clubbing and come home drunk as fuck and shane is feeding them ritz crackers on the kitchen floor while jj and ilya talk to each other in french and russian respectively and act like they know EXACTLY what the other is saying.
“‘Heated Rivalry’ didn’t create Hudson Williams. It just gave the rest of the world a reason to look. [And] the world that didn’t know his name two years ago can’t seem to stop saying it.” - @Medium
“He was already making things. Writing, directing, acting in short films with friends from Langara College, (…) made purely because he couldn’t not make them. The creativity wasn’t something fame unlocked. It was already fully formed, running quietly in the background of a life that had no particular reason to go anywhere extraordinary.”
“What’s quietly remarkable about Hudson Williams is that he never had to negotiate [his] terms. The industry didn’t get to decide whether to bet on him. By the time Hollywood was paying attention, the audience had already decided — and the audience, it turned out, was enormous.”
“He became a global heartthrob and didn’t reinvent himself to match the moment. In a system that usually asks people to choose: be legible to us, or be legible to them, Hudson Williams appears to have simply declined the choice.”
“What he represents, a new kind of Asian male lead, unbeholden to any single cultural template, arrived without permission, is still unfolding.”
