THE PEOPLE I'VE SLEPT WITH is a wild romantic comedy by filmmaker Quentin Lee. Angela (Karin Anna Cheung of Better Luck Tomorrow), a young woman with a zealously active sex life, who after every sexual conquest, makes keepsake "baseball cards" of each of her male conquests. One day, Angela finds out she is pregnant and begins a quest to find the identity of the father. Together with her best friend Gabriel (Wilson Cruz of He's Just Not That Into You, My So-Called Life), the two go on a comical and raunchy hunt through her past hook-ups to find her "baby daddy." But as Angela peels back the layers of her frisky past, she begins to realize that the answers she is looking for reveal themselves in surprising ways. Featuring a sparkling and daring performance by Karin Anna Cheung (Better Luck Tommorow). Amazing cast includes Archie Kao (CSI: Crime Scene Investigation), Lynn Chen (Lakeview Terrace, Saving Face) and screen legend James Shigeta (Flower Drum Song, The Crimson Kimono).
CRITICS REVIEWS:
"Lee finds the universal in the particular: You don't have to be Asian to identify with his people and their predicaments."
Keviin Thomas, film critic
Los Angeles Times
"A little too well behaved at times, but zips along nicely when its raunchier elements kick in."
Variety
"An alternately jaw-dropping and lighthearted look at 21st Century mating habits as apt to leave you in stitches as in shock over the ever-evolving state of the human relating."
Kam Williams, film critic
