Yuen Woo Ping’s Wing Chun
Autor Sasha Vojkovicen Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 feb 2009
Yuen
Woo
Ping’s
kung
fu
comedy
based
on
the
legendary
female
character
Wing
Chun
is
a
landmark
of
action
choreography
and
heroic
womanhood
in
Chinese
cinema.
This
book
explores
Wing
Chun’s
narrative
representation
of
femininity
and
the
martial
arts
genre,
its
history,
traditions
and
cultural
influences.
While
studio-made
Hong
Kong
genre
cinema
has
stressed
action
over
narrative,
Wing
Chun
offers
a
more
egalitarian
gender
imaginary
rooted
in
Daoist
and
Buddhist
thought.
The
book
provides
new
insights
on
the
non-linear
cinematic
storytelling
of
the
film.
This
is
the
first
in-depth
study
of
the
work
of
Yuen
Woo
Ping,
the
well-known
Hong
Kong
film
director
and
action
choreographer
who
achieved
international
recognition
as
an
action
choreographer
of
films
such
as
The
Matrix;
Crouching
Tiger,
Hidden
Dragon;
and
Quentin
Tarantino’s
Kill

Recenzii
“This
is
an
extremely
interesting
study
of
a
critically
neglected
film.
The
author
provides
a
stimulating
and
detailed
analysis,
written
from
a
position
of
considerable
knowledge
of
the
martial
arts
genre,
its
history,
traditions
and
cultural
influences.
“Vojkovic’s
original
and
provocative
study
of
Wing
Chun
illustrates
how
Hong
Kong
films—especially
those
in
the
action
genre—‘work
contrary
to
the
laws
of
common
sense
that
govern
the
social
imagination
of
Western
traditions.’
