Adrian Tomine’s graphic novel “Shortcomings”—which has now been adapted into a film that will be out in theatres on August 4th—follows a young man grappling with his feelings about his Asian American identity.
.” But, this time around, Tomine was involved in the filmmaking process, acting as screenwriter and working closely with Randall Park. I spoke to Tomine about what it has been like for him to revisit his old work, and how he endeavored to usher it into a different medium.
For the poster announcing the film, which will be released on August 4, 2023, Tomine drew the actors who had used his drawings as models.What’s your relationship with a work that you made and published such a long time ago? In my mind, at my age, anything after the year 2000 seems like the present day. But I went back and looked at the book and saw there are all these anachronisms. There are a lot of dramatic moments, like people angrily slamming down landlines. There’s also a whole plot point where someone is in New York and they want someone in California to see something—without an iPhone, they actually have to say, “Hey, come out to New York—I want to show you some things.” So, yes, it also made me feel old.
Then there are other times, especially in other parts of my life, where I feel old. Like an old dad getting angry when kids who are too old are using the swings at the playground—things like that. Which of those modes I’m in really depends on the hour or the minute.
