You could pick and choose essays to xerox, since it's an anthology, to work with another text you choose. Also, Chris Berry's PERSPECTIVES ON CHINESE CINEMA has some good background essays that you might use along with certain Chinese films. Sheldon Liu at U. Pittsburgh was planning a text-book on Chinese cinema, but I do not know how far along this project is. I am a bit confused re what you are trying to do: you want students to read about non-Hollywood international film but not see the films? Did you look at recent British Film Institute publishing for books you might use? Both the books I mention above are BFI publications. I believe Roy Armes may have a new book out on international cinemas. Also, I thought Simon and Schuster were editing a whole series of books on film history that were to include foreign cinemas, edited by Charles Harpole? Does anyone know what became of that project? eak ---- To signoff SCREEN-L, e-mail [log in to unmask] and put SIGNOFF SCREEN-L in the message. Problems? Contact [log in to unmask]
