East Asian Film Theory: The Permanent Seminar 2012

[Mark Nornes]

Back when I started studying Japanese cinema, I took Noël Burch at his word when he wrote that there was no film theory to be found in Asia. I suspect the common sense in the halls of SCMS conference hotels hasn't changed all that much. But this conference will upend all that. More than 60 papers on film theory in Japanese, Korean and Chinese, ranging from the 1910s to the present. Check it out. Come if you can.
