Self description: "[...] contemporary, culturally significant feature films from China, India, Japan, Korea, and Taiwan are promoted through on-line video clips, press kits, filmographies, and critical analyses contributed by film scholars and critics from Asia as well as internationally." Description: Measured against what was here a few months ago this site is likely to become one of the essential sites for contemporary films from China. Few (e.g. at the director's site one entry only) but high quality entries. Site contents: 15 highlighted films from 1992-1998, among them pieces from controversial filmmakers like He Jianjun, Zhou Xiaowen, Zhang Yuan; scholary articles; a comprehensive list of films made in 1998; internationally awarded films from 1988-1999; contains filmclasses at American and Australian universities. _______________________________________________________ With kind regards, Hanno Lecher ([log in to unmask]) INTERNET GUIDE FOR CHINA STUDIES -- editor http://sun.sino.uni-heidelberg.de/igcs/ _______________________________________________________ To unsubscribe from this list, please send an email to: [log in to unmask] containing the following message: SIGNOFF IGCS-L
