As the bodies pile up, Wick ponders actions which could topple the “High Table” once and for all. Most criticisms of this movie (and the John Wick franchise more broadly) will undoubtedly center on the desensitizing effect of its violence, and high body counts. These have been the same criticisms levied at John Woo and other filmmakers trading in choreographed bloodletting. While it’s true that the rapid-fire presentation of violence recalls a videogame aesthetic in certain passages, the care and effort put into establishing a detailed, highly idiosyncratic setting and stylized backdrop provide a distancing effect, letting the film connect n 2014, John Wick, a simple, streamlined, modestly- as pure escapist entertainment.

This birthed a sequel in 2017, John Wick: Chapter 2, which nearly doubled its predecessor, grossing $172 million in theaters worldwide. The most recent film in this unlikely action series, John Wick: Chapter 3 — Parabellum, extends even further the franchise mythology of the Continental Hotel — a luxury establishment which caters exclusively to the criminal underworld, but permits no unsavory “business” on its hallowed grounds — and some of the citizens both populating it and living on its fringes. This includes hotel manager Winston (Ian McShane), an enigmatic gentleman who may be playing both sides, and an underground crime lord known as the Bowery King (Laurence Fishburne). Taking place less than three weeks after the events of the first movie, Parabellum (which in Latin translates as “Prepare for war”) finds an excommunicated Wick, with a $14 million bounty on his head, fighting to stay alive. The “High Table,” the big organized crime syndicate to which Wick once pledged his undying loyalty, sends an Adjudicator (Asia Kate Dillon) to the Continental, to dole out punishment for those who have assisted Wick in his previous escapes.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, MI48106-1346 ABSTRACT Chen Duxiu's Early Years: The Importance of Personal Connections in the Social and Intellectual Transformation of China 1895-1920 by Anne Shen Chao Chen Duxiu (1879-1942), is without question one of the most significant figures in modern Chinese history. Yet his early life has been curiously neglected in Western scholarship. In this dissertation I examine the political, social and intellectual networks that played such an important role in his early career—a career that witnessed his transformation from a classical scholar in the Qing dynasty (1644-1912), to a reformer, to a revolutionary, to a renowned writer and editor, to a university dean, to a founder of the Chinese Communist Party, all in the space of about two decades.
