  • Bad Blood, Good Movie? Laurie Kelley and Paul Clement a Viewer’S Guide: New Documentary About Hemophilia HIV History
    PEN 11-10 CL_PEN 11/16/10 6:27 AM Page 1 Parent Empowerment Newsletter LA Kelley Communications, Inc. inside 3 As I See It: The Hemophilia Archive 4 Inhibitor Insights: Inhibitor Products 5 Transitions: Living Abroad with Peace of Mind 6 Richard’s Review: Hemophilia and AIDS in Film Bad Blood, Good Movie? Laurie Kelley and Paul Clement A Viewer’s Guide: New Documentary about Hemophilia HIV History A new film about hemophilia during the HIV crisis of the 1980s has energized our community. Bad Blood documents events that caused the mass contamination of factor products. Community advocates cheer the movie’s release and hope it will bring more attention to the hemophilia community—for funds, for continued blood safety, and for preserving memories of our fallen heroes. But will Bad Blood needlessly raise fears about plasma- derived products? Most Americans with hemophilia use recombinant products, and most don’t fully understand the difference between product safety and purity. Many of us aren’t aware of the complex production of products, or the fact that all US products are now considered safe. Use of plasma-derived products is on the rise as a treatment for inhibitors—and parents are worried. Now, along comes a film that taps into a parent’s deepest fear: what am I injecting into my child? Will this new documentary reinforce that fear, preventing parents from making good product choices? Flashback It was November 2008, the opening event of National Hemophilia Foundation’s annual meeting in Denver. The audience of hemophilia families and hemophilia chapter representatives filed into a large, festive room decorated with red and blue balloons.

Declaration of Committee Name: Novia Shih-Shan Chen Degree: Doctor of Philosophy Thesis title: Documentary as Alternative Practice: Situating Contemporary Female Filmmakers in Sinophone Cinemas Committee: Chair: Jen Marchbank Professor, Department of Gender, Sexuality and Women’s Studies Helen Hok-Sze Leung Supervisor Professor, Department of Gender, Sexuality and Women’s Studies Zoë Druick Committee Member Professor, School of Communication Lara Campbell Committee Member Professor, Department of Gender, Sexuality and Women’s Studies Christine Kim Examiner Associate Professor, Department of English The University of British Columbia Gina Marchetti External Examiner Professor, Department of Comparative Literature The University of Hong Kong ii Abstract Women’s documentary filmmaking in Sinophone cinemas has been marginalized in the film industry and understudied in film studies scholarship. The convergence of neoliberalism, institutionalization of pan-Chinese documentary films and the historical marginalization of women’s filmmaking in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and the People’s Republic of China (PRC), respectively, have further perpetuated the marginalization of documentary films by local female filmmakers.

  • Warriors As the Feminised Other
    Warriors as the Feminised Other The study of male heroes in Chinese action cinema from 2000 to 2009 A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chinese Studies at the University of Canterbury by Yunxiang Chen University of Canterbury 2011 i Abstract ―Flowery boys‖ (花样少年) – when this phrase is applied to attractive young men it is now often considered as a compliment. This research sets out to study the feminisation phenomena in the representation of warriors in Chinese language films from Hong Kong, Taiwan and Mainland China made in the first decade of the new millennium (2000-2009), as these three regions are now often packaged together as a pan-unity of the Chinese cultural realm. The foci of this study are on the investigations of the warriors as the feminised Other from two aspects: their bodies as spectacles and the manifestation of feminine characteristics in the male warriors. This study aims to detect what lies underneath the beautiful masquerade of the warriors as the Other through comprehensive analyses of the representations of feminised warriors and comparison with their female counterparts. It aims to test the hypothesis that gender identities are inventory categories transformed by and with changing historical context. Simultaneously, it is a project to study how Chinese traditional values and postmodern metrosexual culture interacted to formulate Chinese contemporary masculinity. It is also a project to search for a cultural nationalism presented in these films with the examination of gender politics hidden in these feminisation phenomena. With Laura Mulvey‘s theory of the gaze as a starting point, this research reconsiders the power relationship between the viewing subject and the spectacle to study the possibility of multiple gaze as well as the power of spectacle.

  • Donnie Yen's Kung Fu Persona in Hypermedia

Received: September 18, 2016 Accepted: October 7, 2016 Online Published: October 24, 2016 doi:10.11114/smc.v4i2.1943 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11114/smc.v4i2.1943 Abstract Latest decades have witnessed the proliferation of digital media in Hong Kong action-based genre films, elevating the graphical display of screen action to new levels. While digital effects are tools to assist the action performance of non-kung fu actors, Dragon Tiger Gate (2006), a comic-turned movie, becomes a case-in-point that it applies digitality to Yen, a celebrated kung fu star who is famed by his genuine martial dexterity. In the framework of remediation, this essay will explore how the digital media intervene of the star construction of Donnie Yen. As Dragon Tiger Gate reveals, technological effects work to refashion and repurpose Yen’s persona by combining digital effects and the kung fu body. While the narrative of pain and injury reveals the attempt of visual immediacy, the hybridized bodily representation evokes awareness more to the act of representing kung fu than to the kung fu itself.
