NEW FIRECRACKER MAG UP

Firecracker, the UK mostly-Asian films online magazine, has its new issue up and this one's got the goods. Not only are there plenty of reviews but, best of all, there's an interview with NOWHERE TO HIDE and THE DUELIST director, Lee Myung-Se, in which he addresses the question of whether or not THE DUELIST contains drugs.

They've also got one of those Best of 2005 lists that's the kind that is really the best of what they've seen in 2005 (KUNG FU HUSTLE shares space with RUNNING OUT OF TIME) rather than what was released.
