  • Punished (2011) Dopo Il Sequestro Della Figlia L'imprenditore Wong Ricorre a Ogni Mezzo Per Stanare I Rapitori E Vendicarsi
    Punished (2011) Dopo il sequestro della figlia l'imprenditore Wong ricorre a ogni mezzo per stanare i rapitori e vendicarsi. Un film di Wing-Cheong Law con Anthony Chau-Sang Wong, Richie Ren, Janice Man, Maggie Cheung Ho Yee, Candy Lo, Charlie Cho. Genere Thriller durata 94 minuti. Produzione Hong Kong 2011. Quando la figlia di un magnate viene trovata morta per overdose di cocaina, lui cercherà in ogni modo di vendicarla. Emanuele Sacchi - www.mymovies.it Mentre il mogul Johnnie To sembra sempre più incline alle deviazioni nel campo della commedia e a pregevoli estetismi cinefili, lo zoccolo duro della sua creatura, ossia la Milkyway Image, resta fedele al noir made in Hong Kong. Law Wing-cheong è un fedelissimo di To, uno che da sempre sopperisce con l'umiltà dell'allievo coscienzioso alla mancanza di personalità. Quando si è trattato di uscire dagli schemi di genere ('2 Become 1') i risultati sono stati disastrosi, ma 'Punished' appartiene a quell'artigianato action di qualità che un tempo era prerogativa di Hong Kong. Quasi "coreano" nella sua ossessione per la vendetta, il film di Law delega buona parte della sua forza dirompente all'interpretazione ancora una volta superba di Anthony Wong: un personaggio tutt'altro che monodimensionale quello del palazzinaro miliardario che paga a caro prezzo le manchevolezze della sua dimensione privata. L'insaziabile sete di vendetta dapprima ne esalta i lati più ferini e pare allontanarlo da ogni residuo di umanità, per poi portarlo a uno spietato confronto con se stesso. Indicativo in questo senso il cambio di registro di Wong, alle prese con i rovesciamenti della sottotrama sugli scontri tra imprenditori edili e abitanti dei Nuovi Territori di Hong Kong.

  • “China Factor” in Contemporary Hong Kong Genre Cinema
    Concentric: Literary and Cultural Studies 46.1 March 2020: 11-37 DOI: 10.6240/concentric.lit.202003_46(1).0002 Re-Negotiations of the “China Factor” in Contemporary Hong Kong Genre Cinema Ting-Ying Lin Department of Information and Communication Tamkang University, Taiwan Abstract Given the long-existing and multifaceted negotiations of the “China factor” in Hong Kong film history, this article centers on the political function of genre films by exploring how contemporary Hong Kong filmmakers utilize filmmaking as a flexible strategy to re-negotiate and reflect on the China factor concerning current post-handover political dynamics. By focusing on several recent Hong Kong genre films as case studies, it examines how the China factor is negotiated in Vulgaria (低俗喜劇 Disu xiju, 2012) and The Midnight After (那夜凌晨,我坐上了旺角開往大埔的紅 VAN Naye lingchen, wo zuoshang le Wangjiao kaiwang Dapu de hong van, 2014), considering the politics of languages alongside the imaginary of the disappearance of Hong Kong’s local cultures in the post-handover era. It also highlights two post-Umbrella- Revolution films, Trivisa ( 樹大招風 Shuda zhaofeng, 2016) and The Mobfathers (選老頂 Xuan lao ding, 2016), to explore how the China factor is negotiated in light of the collective anxieties of Hongkongers regarding the handover and controversies in the current electoral system of Hong Kong. By doing so, this article argues that the re-negotiations of the China factor in contemporary Hong Kong genre cinema have become more and more politically reflexive given the increasingly severe political interference of the Beijing sovereignty that has violated the autonomy of Hong Kong, while forming a discourse of resistance of Hongkongers against possible neo- colonialism from the Chinese authorities in the postcolonial city.

  • Contrasting "Infernal Affairs" Hong Kong and "The Departed" Hollywood
    Contrasting "Infernal Affairs" Hong Kong and "The Departed" Hollywood By Prof. Dr. SZE, Man Hung, Stephen and SHEN, Yiting (Graduate Student) Dept. of Film and TV Production, Kushan University of Technology, Tainan County, Taiwan) (Abstract) Film noir is a classical genre of Hollywood. It has its own special elements of evolution and mode of manifestation. It has not been a genre that could be found in Hong Kong for a long time. This article begins with the tracing of the reasons for the lack of film noir in Hong Kong, and its gradual development till the advent of "Infernal Affairs"(2002), which was adopted by Hollywood and resulted in the adapted "The Departed"(2006). Although the basic structure of the plot in both films is based on the interaction and events faced by the two protagonists, and thus bringing out the predicament and helplessness of the two under-covers from both the police and the underworld, the two films are different because of the different socio-cultural contexts, the studio systems of production and the ideas of artistic creativity. After investigating the different approaches of P. 1 Hong Kong and Hollywood studio systems, this article will also then analyze and contrast the two films, binging out their different modes of manifestation, characteristics, character portrayal, cinematic ideas social and artistic values. It will account for the mutation of one text in the two different social and cultural contexts of film production and audience.

  • Election (18) 黑社會 MON 21 MAR, 18:10 Dir Johnnie To/2005 HK/100
    Election (18) 黑社會 MON 21 MAR, 18:10 Dir Johnnie To/2005 HK/100 mins/Cantonese, Mandarin, English with Chinese and English subtitles/ Simon Yam, Leung Ka-fai, Louis Koo, Nick Cheung Johnnie To entered the Hong Kong film industry in the late 1980s after a short career in television and quickly rose to fame as a director of great flexibility. To works out of his own production studio, Milkyway Image, which he established in 1996 with his long time collaborator Wai Ka-fai. While the rest of the industry slowed down amid the social and economic anxiety surrounding the handover to China in 1997, To continued creating films at an alarming pace: directing and producing 33 between 1997 and Election's release in 2005. He became known internationally during this time for his contemplative and morally ambiguous crime films that have earned frequent comparisons to French cinema and the work of director Jean-Pierre Melville but within Hong Kong To is equally well known for his diverse commercial productions from unbeatable rom-coms like Needing You... (2000) to the unique Buddhist-murder-mystery, Running on Karma (2003). To's footing in Hong Kong's popular cinema is evident in Election through its star-studded cast. The calm and collected Lok, vying for his place as chairman of the triad, is played by Simon Yam. Yam began his film career in the late 1980s as a regular player in Hong Kong's “Category III” exploitation movies and, thanks in part to his roles in Johnnie To films, was one of many to find crossover success in the mainstream film industry during the 1990s.
