Trade Review
"Hongyan Zou's skilful analysis rewrites the Chinese West and the Chinese Western genre we thought we knew as dry and dusty pioneer lands in 1980s films like Yellow Earth. Her lively writing reveals a regional cinema of many genres depicting historic cities with distinct identities and rich cultures undergoing explosive growth and ultra-rapid modernisation." -Chris Berry, King's College London
