An indispensable close-up of Chinese cinema from the 1980s to the present.... [T]his book incorporates an unbeatable combination of close contact with Chinese filmmakers over two decades, the author's personal experience of living in and visiting China since the 1970s, and a historian's perspective on contemporary politics and culture. This very readable account of key directors and their works adds a fine critical judgment to the author's passion for cinema. - Bonnie S. McDougall Chair Professor of Chinese, University of Edinburgh
