Cinema AZN

Cinema AZN was a weekly half-hour program, hosted by Marie-France Arcilla, broadcast on AZN Television until that network ceased broadcasting in April 2008. With AZN's closedown, the program's fate is unknown.

Cinema AZN mixed popular entertainment, informed reporting, and featured some of Asia's biggest stars such as Tony Leung (2046), Stephen Chow (Kung Fu Hustle), Amitabh Bachchan, Zhang Ziyi (Hero, Memoirs of a Geisha) and Joan Chen (Saving Face); and major filmmakers such as Wong Kar-wai, Hayao Miyazaki, Jackie Chan (Rush Hour, Rush Hour 2 and Rush Hour 3), Zhang Yimou and Im Kwon-Taek.

Cinema AZN was conceived and created by the series' executive producer Roger Garcia, Hollywood and Asian independent producer who later ran the Hong Kong International Film Festival and Asian Film Awards Academy. It was produced by Woo Art International, a New York-based production company, in association with Asian CineVision, a non-profit media arts organization.
