Summary "In Chinese Film, Jason McGrath traces the varied claims to cinematic realism made by Chinese filmmakers, critics, and scholars. He presents realism as an aesthetic form that negotiates between cultural conventions and the ever-evolving real, envisioning it as more than just a cinematic question and showing how the struggle for realism is central to the Chinese struggle for modernity itself."-- Provided by publisher
