Chinese Cinema: Culture and Politics since 1949

by Paul Clark

The first comprehensive history of film in China from the establishment of the People's Republic in 1949 to the mid-1980s when a "new wave" broke. Clark argues that Chinese cinema has not been primarily politically motivated, but the product of a dynamic relationship involving audiences.
