In an encouraging indicator that Hollywood might, just might, be responding to increased demand for high-profile, high-quality films concentrated on the Asian experience, this year’s CAAMFest — billed as the world’s largest showcase for Asian and Asian American movies — contains a few hyped studio features within its lineup.The most eye-catching are the raucous R-rated opening night feature “Joy Ride” — a wild comedy that receives a huge theatrical release July 7 — and the Disney+ streaming series “American Born Chinese,” adapted from the award-winning graphic novel by the East Bay’s own Gene Luen Yang.But let’s not get too ecstatic about how Hollywood is making up for its prior shortcomings. And there’s still room for improvement given that there are numerous worthwhile shorts, documentaries and narrative features, most of which haven’t caught the eye of big studios yet.As for CAAMFest, it kicks off May 11 off in a splashy and tremendous way with...GOP megadonor Harlan Crow refuses to provide details on Clarence Thomas’ gifts, trips
