| Abstract | "This book examines the contemporary relationship between Hollywood and China as case studies that help to define a new era in Hollywood film industry, style, and economics, which is termed the "post-postclassical" period. Centred around a case study of Legendary Entertainment, the analysis shows how the studio adopted and adapted its global strategies in order to gain access to and favour within the Chinese film market, and how issues of censorship and financial performance affected the choices they made. Demonstrating Legendary's identity as a "post-postclassical" studio and examining how this plays into its China-strategy, the book explores how this particular case and the necessary analysis of wider political economic relations offers a periodisation of the contemporary Hollywood-China relationship. This book will interest students and scholars of media and film studies, as well as academics whose research interests include global cinema, Hollywood, Chinese cinema, transnational cinema, and film industry studies"-- Provided by publisher. |
