• An interesting reinvestigation of the cultural context, historical events, socio-economic shifts, and the impact of those events on individual lives of the famous film, An Autumn's Tale (秋天的童話). • A lively discussion of the importance of migration as a subject for many Hong Kong films made during the period leading up to the handover to PRC sovereignty in 1997. • Is readable and teachable for those looking to understand the connections between the U.S. and Asia during a dynamic period -- the 1980s -- in both Hong Kong and New York. Stacilee Ford teaches history and American Studies in the University of Hong Kong. "...[An] in-depth study of an important film by a leading woman director of the Hong Kong New Wave. It is rich in historical contextualization and astute in critical engagement... The author sheds new light on the nature of diaspora studies as well as the dynamics of transnational cinematic culture." -- Sheldon Lu, Professor of Comparative Literature, University of California, Davis
