Jimmy WANG Yu 王羽（b. 1943） Actor, Director Wang’s original name was Wang Zhengquan and he was born into a family from Wuxi, Jiangshu. Wang was a swimming athlete in his youth in Shanghai. He came to Hong Kong in 1960 and studied Civil Engineering at Chu Hai College. Wang gained his first lead role in Shaw Brother’s Tiger Boy (1966) through open audition, and rose to public prominence with One-Armed Swordsman (1967), directed by Chang Cheh. Following this success, he continued to work with Chang on The Assassin (1967), Golden Swallow (1968) and Return of the One-Armed Swordsman (1969). As the embodiment of a cool, arrogant young hero so rarely seen on the silver screen in those days, Wang emerged to become the major actor to star in a series of colour wuxia features produced by Shaws. He debuted as a director with The Chinese Boxer (1970), which became the highest grosser of the year with box-office earnings of over HK$2 million. He left Shaws in the same year and moved to Taiwan to continue his film career. From then on, he was very active in the Taiwan film scene and worked on many of Golden Harvest (HK) Limited’s outreach projects in Taiwan and overseas. His first collaboration with the company was Zatoichi and the One-Armed Swordsman (1971), which was shot in Japan. In 1973, he starred in Lo Wei’s A Man Called Tiger, which made over HK$2 million at the box office. He also took part in other Golden Harvest productions, including The Invincible Sword (1972), Seaman No. 7 (1973); and directed, wrote and acted in One-Armed Boxer (1972) and Beach of the War Gods (1973). Wang also took up the leading role in The Man from Hong Kong (1975) and A Queen’s Ransom (1976), both star-studded ventures produced by Golden Harvest. From the late 1960s to the late 1970s, Wang was one of the most influential stars in Hong Kong and Taiwan. He gradually faded out from the cinematic scene in the 1990s. His being active again in front of the camera led to his recent performances including Wu Xia (2011) directed by Peter Chan Ho-sun, Let’s Go! (2011) directed by Wong Ching-po, The Guillotines (2012) directed by Andrew Lau, and Soul (2013) directed by Taiwanese filmmaker Chung Mong-hong. .

Fighting and dancing games both emerge from Asia, and they both foreground the body. They strip down bodily movement into elemental actions like stepping, kicking, leaping, and tapping, and make these the form and content of the game. I argue that fighting and dancing games point to a key dynamic in videogame play: the programming of the body into the algorithmic logic of the game, a logic that increasingly organizes the informatic structure of everyday work and leisure in a globally interconnected information economy.

Research Golden Harvest and the Generational Change in 1970s Hong Kong Cinema Po Fung The 1970s were a period of pivotal transitions in Hong Kong cinema. It was also the era of Golden Harvest, from its birth to becoming the main pillar of the film industry. In changing times, Golden Harvest had the flexibility to move with the times, but on the other hand its success came from it spearheading much of the change. Looking at the changes in the company itself, one can see some of significant movements in Hong Kong cinema back then. A New Crop of Homegrown Directors Founded in 1970, Golden Harvest released its debut production The Invincible Eight in 1971. Before The Big Boss hit the screens on 31 October, 1971, Golden Harvest’s productions and distributions include Lo Wei’s The Invincible Eight; Zatoichi and the One-Armed Swordsman, co-directed by Hsu Tseng-hung and Yasuda Kimiyoshi; Hsu Tseng-hung’s The Last Duel, Yip Wing-cho’s The Blade Spares None; Huang Feng’s The Angry River and The Fast Sword; Lo Wei’s The Comet Strikes; Wong Tin-lam’s The Chase; Hsu Tseng-hung’s The Invincible Sword and Law Chi’s Thunderbolt.1 On genre, these were all martial arts, or wuxia films from the ‘new wuxia era’ trend driven by the Shaw Brothers.

CHINA Im Kino 16.10.2018 – 3.2.2019 Interkulturelle Annäherungen, Zwischen Tradition Und Globalisierung
Traumfabrik #16 / 2018-19 Stand: 11.10.2018 CHINA im Kino 16.10.2018 – 3.2.2019 Interkulturelle Annäherungen, zwischen Tradition und Globalisierung Zhang Yimou: Hero (2002), 1:16:10 Der Ferne Osten rückt näher: Öffnung von Grenzen zwischen Ost und West, wirtschaftlicher und kultureller Austausch, Globalisierung - Gründe genug für die TRAUMFABRIK, die Blicke nach China zu richten, eine der frühesten Zivilisationen, in deren Schriftkultur sich (wie in Filmen) Bildhaftigkeit mit Abstraktion verbindet. Festivals, Filmpreise und Retrospektiven weltweit zeigen schon lange die hohe Qualität chinesischer Filme. Einer der besten Wege, eine Kultur kennenzulernen, ist sich mit ihren Filmen zu beschäftigen: Filme enthalten alle medialen Ausdrucksformen und sind Widerspiegelungen der Gesellschaft. Die chinesische Filmkultur zeigt mehrere parallele Entwicklungslinien: neben Filmen aus Festlandchina stehen solche aus Hongkong und Taiwan. Ihre Entwicklungen sind durch politische und soziale Umwälzungen bestimmt: Kolonialismus und Krieg, Bürgerkrieg, Revolution und Kulturrevolution, wirtschaftliche Öffnung und staatliche Kontrolle - vieles davon wird von Themen und Erzählungen der Filme gespiegelt. Unter wechselnden Rahmenbedingungen, zwischen Zensur, Konformitätsdruck und Kritik, suchten Filmkünstler ihre Freiräume. Als eigenständig chinesisches Filmgenre wurde im Westen der Kung-Fu-Film bekannt, populär geworden durch Bruce Lee. Mehr als nur Action, steht Kung Fu für die Vielfalt traditioneller asiatischer Kampfsportarten, verbunden mit spirituellen Ansätzen zwischen Mystik und Philosophie. Eine Mischung aus Martial Arts (Kampfkunst), Fantasy und (oft epischem) Historienfilm bietet das Wuxia-Genre, das Überlieferungen einer jahrhundertealten geschichtlichen Tradition aufgreift, um ihren Stellenwert für die aktuelle Gesellschaft neu zu deuten und zu reflektieren. Neben Melodramen zwischen Peking-Oper und Hongkong-Pop stehen romantische Komödien, Familiendramen, Thriller – alles das vor dem Hintergrund des raschen Wandels der Gesellschaft.

Hong Kong Filmmakers Search: Hua Shan
HUA Shan 華山（b. 1942.2.9） Cinematographer, Director Also known as Hua Yihong, Hua was born in Shanghai and graduated from Shanghai Film Academy, specialising in cinematography. He came to Hong Kong in 1962 and joined Shaw Brothers (Hong Kong) Ltd the following year as an assistant to Japanese cinematographer Nishimoto Tadashi (He Lanshan). He was promoted to cinematographer in 1968. The 11 titles that he shot during this period, of which most of them were produced by Shaws, included Shen Chiang’s The Winged Tiger (1970), Jimmy Wang Yu’s directorial debut The Chinese Boxer (1970), Wu Ma’s Deaf and Mute Heroine (1971) and Ho Fan’s Love and Blood (1972). In 1973, Hua left Shaws and went to Taiwan to work as a director and made Spice of life (1974) and Underworld Beauty (1974). Hua returned to Shaws as a director in 1975 and began shooting Super Inframan (1975), with Chua Lam as the producer. It was also Hong Kong’s first sci-fi film with extensive special effects. The film did not score well at the Hong Kong box office, but was a hit at other places, thus establishing Hua’s position as director. Shaws then produced a five-part film series of major criminal cases in Hong Kong. Hua was the director for three of them, including The Valley of the Hanged in The Criminals (1976), Big Sister in Homicides—The Criminals, Part Two (1976) and No Escape for the Culprit in Arson—The Criminals, Part Three (1977). Meanwhile, he also shot Brotherhood (1976), which made Anthony Lau Wing a star.

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.
