David Bordwell’s fairly recent book on Hong-Kong Cinema is a very good
starting point. It combines production history with detailed film
analyses and is a very good read, too.

Betreff: Chinese cinema

Does anyone have any knowledge of accessible reference material on the
history of Chinese film making? I'm particularly interested in the
development of the kung fu and horror genres, but I'd also like to know
the beginnings of Chinese film making, or at least Hong Kong film
making.
