Cinemas from East Asia are among the most exciting and influential
in the world. They are attracting popular and critical attention on
a global scale, with films from the region circulating as art
house, cult, blockbuster and 'extreme' cinema, or as Hollywood
remakes. This book explores developments in the global popularity
of East Asian cinema, from Chinese martial arts, through Japanese
horror, to the burgeoning new Korean cinema, with particular
emphasis on crossovers, remakes, hybrids and co-productions. It
examines changing cinematic traditions in Asia alongside the
'Asianisation' of western cinema. It explores the dialogue not only
between 'East' and 'West', but between different cinemas in the
Asia Pacific. What do these trends mean for global cinema? How are
co-productions and crossover films changing the nature of Hollywood
and East Asian cinemas? The book includes in-depth studies of Park
Chan-wook, 'Infernal Affairs', 'Seven Samurai', and 'Princess
Mononoke'.
