Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Sight is a new movie detailing an incredible real-life story. The center of the film is Dr. Ming Wang, a Chinese immigrant who lived through China’s Cultural Revolution, came to the United States, and became a world-renowned eye surgeon. The movie was directed by Andrew Hyatt, written by Hyatt, John Duigan, and Buzz McLaughlin, and stars Terry Chen as the adult Dr. Wang, Ben Wang as the young Ming Wang, and Greg Kinnear as Dr.
Screen Rant interviewed Terry Chen and Dr. Ming Wang about their work on Sight. Dr. Wang happily verified the truth of key movie moments and Chen discussed bringing out the authenticity of Dr. Wang’s story. We shot this film in 2021, in the midst of the pandemic, so we had quite a bit of quarantine time and downtime where I was able to share a lot of stories and talk to the good doctor about his life and about what he had gone through. So, there was a lot of connection personally in terms of storytelling. Beyond that, setting aside all my apprehensions and fear about playing such an iconic figure in the medical world, there was an important message and story to be told.
Authenticity Was Key In Telling Dr. Ming’s Story Terry, you’re playing a real person, but you’re also dramatizing the story, working with Greg Kinnear and a bunch of other fantastic actors. What did you, as an actor, want to bring to this on a dramatic level? Dr. Ming Wang: Yes, that really happened. It was someone who had no clue about Japanese food and big wasabi his mouth, and he nearly died. I had to practically do CPR to save him, and then my future wife, Anle, was actually standing in the corner, saw the whole thing, and was impressed. The other day I was telling a young man, “If you want to impress a young lady, save somebody's life.” But that's how we initially met, and the rest is history.
