In Shanghai Filmmaking, Huang Xuelei invites readers to go on an
intimate, detailed, behind-the-scenes tour of the world of early
Chinese cinema. She paints a nuanced picture of the Mingxing Motion
Picture Company, the leading Chinese film studio in the 1920s and
1930s, and argues that Shanghai filmmaking involved a series of
border-crossing practices. Shanghai filmmaking developed in a
matrix of global cultural production and distribution, and
interacted closely with print culture and theatre. People from
allegedly antagonistic political groupings worked closely with each
other to bring a new form of visual culture and a new body of
knowledge to an audience in and outside China. By exploring various
border crossings, this book sheds new light on the power of popular
cultural production during China's modern transformation.
