asia pacific arts' best of 2009

Okay, we're a couple of weeks into 2010, but we can still do a little bit of looking back... My friends at Asia Pacific Arts, one of my favorite online magazines, have been quietly unveiling their annual Best of 2009 edition, looking back and selecting some of their favorite Asian and Asian American films, performers, behind-the-scenes artists, video games, lifestyle media gurus and more.

It's an issue I look forward to every year -- particularly the Best Asian American Film feature. It's a solid list. Take a look at the entire Best of 2009 issue here.
