Description

Since the mid-1980s, films from China have received critical acclaim in many circles and substantial scholarly response, both from within and outside Chinese Studies. Analyses significant feature and documentary films from China, beginning with examples of the cinema of the 1930s and 1940s, and highlights from the cinema of the hard-line Communist period. Examines examples from the ideological thaw in the late 1970s, the New Wave films of the 1980s and several avant-garde films from the 1990s.
