The cat in question is named "Fred Sang." He is, indeed, of asian decent on the minorities panel in "Chasing Amy." One one hand, Caitlin Bree, her mother and Alyssa Jones all referred to him as "Sang." I don't know if many people would have their fiances and their relatives and friends call them by their last name. On the other hand, what are the odds of the name "Sang" of all names being used twice at random in two movies by the same filmmaker, a filmmaker who is pretty big on in-jokes? Not very good, I'd say. Anyway, I'm gonna file it with the "Sylvan Derris" controversy in the "maybe it'll fit in with something later" category. Until I hear otherwise, it's a reference. However,it's pretty vague. Now that I read my post, I see that there are no "questions," unlike what the subject line reads. But "Thoughts and uncertainties..." doesn't have the same ring, so I'M LEAVING IT IN!
: I never noticed that before. I mean, I know Sang may be somewhat of a common Asian name (???) but that'd be real cool if it were intentional.
