Rae Dawn Chong brief information

Chong loves giving platforms to talented people to grow. She displayed this attribute while searching for Chris Pratt. Then the young man, who was only 19 years old, served at the Bubba Gump Shrimp Company restaurant in Maui. After seeing his abilities, Chong made him appear in her directorial debut, the short horror film Cursed Part 3.

Chong grew up desperate to learn about her Chinese culture. This was inspired by her grandfather, who declined to teach his children Cantonese, a variety of Chinese spoken primarily in Guangzhou and its regions of southeastern China, although he spoke it fluently. The reason for this was that her grandfather had left a poor village in China in the 1930s. There he had great racial defilement.
