In an email Aaron Sorkin laments the fact that writing a script from Lewis’ book Flash Boys would present several problems, one of which is that the protagonist of the flick would be, god forbid, Asian American. (This despite the fact that the last time a non-fiction book about Asian Americans was turned into a movie, they made it about white folk instead). He also goes onto the state there are no Asian movie stars. . . .But what do I know? If Aaron Sorkin says there are no Asian movie stars, then there are no Asian movie stars. Or maybe, to paraphrase Chris Rock, Hollywood is just a racist white industry.
