  • Sesiones ESPECIALES 8 1/2 WOMAN
    SEsIONES ESPECIALES 8 1/2 WOMAN 8 1/2 WOMAN Producción: Kees Kasander, para Delux Productions, Continent Films, Movie Master, Woodline Productions. Nacionalidad: Netherlands/United Kingdom/ Luxembourg/Germany 1999. Directed: Peter Greenaway. Guión: Peter Greenaway. Fotografía. Sacha Vierny. Color. Vestuario: Emi Wada. Montaje: Elmer Leupen. Intérpretes: John Standing, Matthew Delamere, Vivian Wo, Annie Shizuka Inoh, Barbara Sarafian, Kirina Mano, Toni Collette, Amanda Plummer, Natacha Amal, Manna Fujiwara, Polly Walker, Elizabeth Berrington , Myriam Muller, Don Warrington, Claire Johnston. Duración: 120 min. V.O.S.E. 8 1/2 Woman es un penetrante e innovador estudio sobre el sexo, el poder, las clases sociales, las culturas, la mujer... Peter Greenaway explora las relaciones entre hombres y mujeres y el sexo en uno de sus films más logrados de los últimos años, en el que retoma su obsesión por las simetrías, los números y las estructuras artificiales, aunque en favor de una trama más accesible y hasta divertida. Un adinerado hombre de unos 55 años pierde a su esposa de toda la vida. Queda desolado por la tristeza. Su hijo intenta consolarlo, le propone reunir a un grupo de mujeres en un castillo y descubrir una sexualidad aún latente. Mujeres con las que ambos experimentarán libremente. 8 y 1/2 mujeres, de distintas procedencias culturales y sociales, son llamadas a integrar el harén. Todas lo hacen a cambio de algo. Con el tiempo, no mucho, padre e hijo se darán cuenta que las mujeres empiezan a desafiar su poder y que son criaturas más complejas que simples pedazos de carne. Una a una se alejan casi hastiadas de la presencia masculina.

  • 1 “Ann Hui's Allegorical Cinema” Jessica Siu-Yin Yeung to Cite This
    This is the version of the chapter accepted for publication in Cultural Conflict in Hong Kong: Angles on a Coherent Imaginary published by Palgrave Macmillan https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-981-10-7766-1_6 Accepted version downloaded from SOAS Research Online: http://eprints.soas.ac.uk/34754 “Ann Hui’s Allegorical Cinema” Jessica Siu-yin Yeung To cite this article: By Jessica Siu-yin Yeung (2018) “Ann Hui’s Allegorical Cinema”, Cultural Conflict in Hong Kong: Angles on a Coherent Imaginary, ed. Jason S. Polley, Vinton Poon, and Lian-Hee Wee, 87-104, Singapore: Palgrave Macmillan, 2018. Allegorical cinema as a rhetorical approach in Hong Kong new cinema studies1 becomes more urgent and apt when, in 2004, the Closer Economic Partnership Arrangement (CEPA) begins financing mainland Chinese-Hong Kong co-produced films.2 Ackbar Abbas’s discussion on “allegories of 1997” (1997, 24 and 16–62) stimulates studies on Happy Together (1997) (Tambling 2003), the Infernal Affairs trilogy (2002–2003) (Marchetti 2007), Fu Bo (2003), and Isabella (2006) (Lee 2009). While the “allegories of 1997” are well- discussed, post-handover allegories remain underexamined. In this essay, I focus on allegorical strategies in Ann Hui’s post-CEPA oeuvre and interpret them as an auteurish shift from examinations of local Hong Kong issues (2008–2011) to a more allegorical mode of narration. This, however, does not mean Hui’s pre-CEPA films are not allegorical or that Hui is the only Hong Kong filmmaker making allegorical films after CEPA. Critics have interpreted Hui’s films as allegorical critiques of local geopolitics since the beginning of her career, around the time of the Sino-British Joint Declaration in 1984 (Stokes and Hoover 1999, 181 and 347 note 25), when 1997 came and went (Yau 2007, 133), and when the Umbrella Movement took place in 2014 (Ho 2017).

  • An Interview with Ann Hui Visible Secrets: Hong Kong's Women
    An Interview with Ann Hui Visible Secrets: Hong Kong’s Women Filmmakers Your 21st century films are quite eclectic. What has driven your choice of projects in recent times? I shot Visible Secrets after two years' teaching and I thought, first, I'd better do a film that was marketable. My first film is also a thriller and I thought it was fun to revisit old grounds. Then followed a film which I was really interested in making (July Rhapsody ), I thought I would never be able to raise funds for it but surprisingly it was accepted by the investor, so I made it. And so forth and so on... alternately, making films I really want to make and some I could just make so as to survive in the industry. Could you talk a little about The Way We Are and Night and Fog? These films seem quite different stylistically; one very much informed by social realism and the other more melodramatic, yet each seems perfect for its subject matter. What made you select these different approaches to the setting of Tin Shui Wai? The Way We Are was initially planned as a D.V. affair since I couldn’t find the money for Night and Fog . It's also initially not about Tin Shui Wai but I decided to transport the whole setting to Tin Shui Wai. The script was already written 7 or 8 years ago about another housing estate but since I knew Tin Shui Wai well, and the lifestyle of all these housing areas are about the same, I thought it would be okay to transpose the whole story to the newest housing estate.

In recent years, there has been much research and theory on western film music, especially the Hollywood film industry, by musicologists and scholars in film studies, popular music studies, and other fields. However, there has been little research on Hong Kong Film music, the system of which is different from that of western film music, and therefore I will apply basic film music concepts, but using the real situation of Hong Kong film music to formulate my own argument. The methodology used in this thesis will include the application of basic concepts used by scholars of film music, such as the functions of music in film, combined with fieldwork and analysis of films.

Cinematic representations of diaspora, accurately enough, also show general similarities and specific differences. In light of the concept of "accented cinema," we can compare and contrast film descriptions of Chinese immigrants in New York City.

  • Alternative Titles Index
    VHD Index - 02 9/29/04 4:43 PM Page 715 Alternative Titles Index While it's true that we couldn't include every Asian cult flick in this slim little vol- ume—heck, there's dozens being dug out of vaults and slapped onto video as you read this—the one you're looking for just might be in here under a title you didn't know about. Most of these films have been released under more than one title, and while we've done our best to use the one that's most likely to be familiar, that doesn't guarantee you aren't trying to find Crippled Avengers and don't know we've got it as The Return of the 5 Deadly Venoms. And so, we've gathered as many alternative titles as we can find, including their original language title(s), and arranged them in alphabetical order in this index to help you out. Remember, English language articles ("a", "an", "the") are ignored in the sort, but foreign articles are NOT ignored. Hey, my Japanese is a little rusty, and some languages just don't have articles.
