Disappearance and its relation to the ephemeral, to speed and to abstraction
评分读过关于香港最有意思的书竟然是个老外写的....
评分跟读过的所有学术著作都不同,这本书和香港一样在我的智识和情感中将占有非常非常非常重要的位置。还记得当时在芝加哥的抑郁春日玻璃穹顶图书馆里读第二章读到哭出来。现在读其他章节的sentimentality总算是带有了些轻松幽默嬉笑的成分。
评分deja disparu就是disappearance, 把一個詞用法語說一下並不就能把理論性提高了,理論之實用性在於具體的分析,對王家衛關錦鵬許鞍華等人作品和colonilality聯繫起來解讀,觀點新穎。還有武俠電影從Bruce Lee到成龍徐克到王家衛的東邪西毒,也是可圈可點。debunk了對商業片的一貫偏見,用大陸第五代導演的例子說得很在理。不過對於84的中英聯合聲明和八9的震蕩似乎有點解讀得有點過了
