Reviews

It is a must-read for students, scholars and academics in the field of film and cultural studies. On account of its interdisciplinary appeal, the book will also be useful to students and scholars in other disciplines such as sociology and China studies, apart from being of interest to general readers and film lovers. (Romi Jain, Hong Kong Studies, Vol. 2 (2), 2019)
