Craziness and Carnival in Neo-Noir Chinese Cinema offers an
in-depth discussion of the "stone phenomenon" in Chinese film
production and cinematic discourses triggered by the extraordinary
success of the 2006 low-budget film, Crazy Stone. Surveying the
nuanced implications of the film noir genre, Harry Kuoshu argues
that global neo noir maintains a mediascape of references,
borrowings, and re-workings and explores various social and
cultural issues that constitute this Chinese episode of neo noir.
Combining literary explorations of carnival, postmodernism, and
post-socialism, Kuoshu advocates for neo noir as a cultural
phenomenon that connects filmmakers, film critics, and film
audiences rather than an industrial genre.
