Legacies of the Drunken Master

Politics of the Body in Hong Kong Kung Fu Comedy Films

Herausgeber: Alexy, Allison

Beschreibung

The first book-length analysis of kung fu comedy, this volume interrogates the politics of the films and their representations of the performing body. It draws on an interdisciplinary engagement with popular culture and an interrogation of the critical literature on Hong Kong and martial arts cinema to offer original readings of key films.
