Curiozități

Take Out is a 2004 American independent drama film written and directed by Sean Baker and Shih-Ching Tsou. Tsou's co-directorial debut feature and Baker's second work, the film follows an undocumented Chinese immigrant working as a deliveryman for a Chinese take-out shop in New York City.

Production

Take Out was filmed in and near Upper Manhattan, New York, in the spring of 2003 on a budget of $3,000. The film was shot on digital video due to both the cinema vérité style and a non-existent budget with an ensemble cast of both professional and nonprofessional actors while shooting without a full crew in an actual take-out restaurant during operating hours.

Charles Jang is a Korean-American actor born on Long Island who learned Chinese while studying abroad in Taiwan. Co-director Shih-Ching Tsou, who is from Taiwan, assumed that he was from China when he auditioned.
