The Chinese Film Industry After 1976

Li, Yan, 1959- 08 1900 (has links)
After the "Cultural Revolution" in 1976, the Chinese film industry returned to normal. Between 1976 and 1979, most filmmakers returned to their film studios and began to reorganize the production system. After 1980, the Chinese film industry began to develop multi-dimensionally. The highlight of this development was the rising of a large number of young directors and their works, which became hits and attracted attention both at home and abroad. More and more Chinese films were seen at international film festivals, often winning the awards. This study focuses on the important period between 1976 and 1988 in the Chinese film history and its influence on the development of the Chinese film industry; it concludes with the discussion of the direction the Chinese film industry is heading in the future.

China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan: The Convergence and Interaction of Chinese Film

Yu, Gwo-chauo 05 1900 (has links)
This study focuses on the evolution of the movie industries in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and China in the late 1980s and early 1990s, with an emphasis on the interaction and cooperation in movie production among these three areas. The study consists of three sections: a general description of the development of Chinese cinema before 1949; an overview of the movie industries in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and China after the civil war; and an intensive study of the recent changes, interactions, and connections among these industries. In the third section, three models are proposed to explain the changing practices in movie production in these three areas. Obstacles preventing further cooperation and the significance of the reconstruction and integration of Chinese cinema are discussed.

Gender, Identity, and Influence: Hong Kong Martial Arts Films

Castillo, Gilbert Gerard 12 1900 (has links)
This project is an examination of the Hong Kong film industry, focusing on the years leading up to the handover of Hong Kong to communist China. The influence of classical Chinese culture on gender representation in martial arts films is examined in order to formulate an understanding of how these films use gender issues to negotiate a sense of cultural identity in the face of unprecedented political change. In particular, the films of Hong Kong action stars Michelle Yeoh and Brigitte Lin are studied within a feminist and cultural studies framework for indications of identity formation through the highlighting of gender issues.

Crossing the transnational Hong Kong cinema co-production: production culture, policy, business, and individual practitioners. / 跨越「跨國香港電影合拍片」: 香港電影的製作文化、政策、電影行業與個人從業員研究 / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collection / Kua yue "kua guo Xianggang dian ying he pai pian": Xianggang dian ying de zhi zuo wen hua, zheng ce, dian ying hang ye yu ge ren cong ye yuan yan jiu

Taking co-production as a dominant development of Hong Kong's film industry, this study examines the transnationality of different trends of co-production: Hong Kong China co-production, Hong Kong - Asia co-production, and individuals working for overseas productions, and the production cultures in these varied contexts are analyzed. By crossing production culture, policy, film business and the work of individual practitioners with the concept and practices of transnationality, this study outlines the possibilities and limitations of developing transnational co-production in Hong Kong cinema. Focusing on its varied manifestations, this thesis emphasizes the plurality of transnationality and suggests that "transnationalities" are a result of the development of Hong Kong cinema. The influences and infiltration of Hong Kong cinema into the other cinemas of the world reflects its ways of survival, and the simple claiming of "the death of Hong Kong" should be questioned. Although there are many constraints in co-production, and some practitioners of valuable skills, like action choreography, are privileged to others, the thesis reveals that Hong Kong cinema is transforming in a direction that provides a foundation for sustainable development. The different co-production projects in which Hong Kong cinema is now engaging demonstrate how this cinema will be able to incorporate itself into the production process in China, Asia and the overseas contexts. / Chan, Ka Ming. / Adviser: Lai-Kwan Pang. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 73-04, Section: A, page: . / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2011. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 317-338). / Electronic reproduction.
