So, to begin my book-length analysis of this Hong Kong-Singapore work, I want to reflect upon Bugis Street as a cinematic text of cultural anxiety. While it is true that one can isolate moments of cultural and political anxieties in its narrative and thematic foci, I am instead interested here in the film’s cultural reception and, consequently, how that response has an impact on the way scholarly critical work on the film is perceived.
