Contemporary Asian Cinema by Tereska Ciecko Anne
With chapters on Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Thailand, the Philippines, India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and others, this book presents an assessment of contemporary Asian cinema. Each chapter describes the cultural aspects of popular film production, analyzing key films in the context of the national, the regional and the global.
An excellent introduction to Asian cinemaScreening the Past Each chapter is concise, clearly written, and accessible, giving a suitable foundation and introduction. Supplemented by more complex essays on individual films, this book should also be useful for upper level under-graduateand even MA courses. It will surely be popular with tecahers and students alike. Chris Berry, Goldsmiths College, Global Media and Communication (Vol. 3, 2007) Contemporary Asian Cinema is, therefore, certainly a welcome book that is not only valuable, but also an excellent introduction to Asian cinema.
