The Art of Hong Kong Cinema Kingdom Entertainment

The updated Hong Kong edition of renowned film historian and theorist David Bordwell's "Planet Hong Kong: Popular Cinema and the Art of Entertainment" is now available. The first Chinese edition, published in Hong Kong in 2001, has long been out of print. This updated edition includes two new chapters and two appendices (on the "Infernal Affairs" trilogy and Johnnie To), bringing the total to 360 pages. Nearly all of the illustrations inside have been converted to color, making it an exquisite publication. David Bordwell has a special affection for Hong Kong cinema, offering insightful analysis of its artistic achievements from the 1970s to the present day and its contributions to the international film scene. Rich in references and beautifully illustrated, this book is a must-read for any Hong Kong cinema enthusiast.
