Abstract

The article reflects the author's views about the Chinese film industry and trends in Chinese films. The author says that Chinese films are depicting two contradictory approaches: films as source of economic consolidation and as a medium of dissent for the marginalized sections. The Chinese film industry has been growing despite government restrictions, says the author. The author also analyzes the film "The Curse of the Golden Flower" directed by Zhang Yimou.
