“Exciting. Funny. With some horror, but bright and charming,” this is how young writer and artist, Edd Lai, describes his work and the comics he’s been publishing for 6 months. His stories instantly catch readers who find his work while they’re in search of something different. In his illustrations, terror mixes with humor, and its main ingredient is a surprising ending, a completely unexpected plot twist. Writing is currently the way Lai makes a living. He has written some novels and scripts that were published in his native Taiwan, as well as 3 series of long-running comics for a Korean company.
In an exclusive interview for Bright Side, Lai commented that his main fount of inspiration is human complexity. He likes exploring the differences in people’s lives and discussing how each person’s point of view is based on what they believe to be true and in how they ignore other’s perspectives. We want to show you a selection of 11 of his comics so you can explore the work of this young artist and his peculiar world vision.

The idea for the movie came from a coincidental meeting. Inspiring material for screenwriter Delauter came from an accidental encounter with a bar test aspirant in the early 1970s. The basis for the plot of the movie was established by this interaction and the candidate’s will to succeed on the test despite failing it several times.
Moreover, people from Joe Pesci’s neighborhood had an influence on the characters in “My Cousin Vinny.” Pesci brought authenticity to his portrayal of Vinny by combining characteristics from several acquaintances, drawing on his upbringing in New Jersey to create a figure who struck a chord with viewers.
