Close-ups and Long Shots in Modern Chinese Cinemas

To understand why a director prefers one type of shot over the other is to explore more than aesthetics: It uncovers assumptions about film as an art of intervention. Close-ups and Long Shots in Modern Chinese Cinemas is the first book to compare these two shots within the cultural, historical, and cinematic traditions that produced them.
