Illuminates the way gangster films deal with the ambiguities of modern life, correcting the notion that this genre is inconsequential sensationalism Contends that both American and Hong Kong gangster films are against-the-grain reactions to the central fable of modern democracies that promise immigrant (and other) outsiders that they can become social insiders Clarifies crucial and fascinating differences between American and Hong Kong approaches to enjoining the discussion of immigrant histories by placing them in counterpoint with each other Draws on a range of American films, ranging from "Public Enemy" and "Scarface" to "Gangs of New York," "Goodfellas," and "The Godfather" Explores a number of Hong Kong's 21st century gangster films, including Andrew Lau's great trilogy, "Infernal Affairs, " and "Election" and "Election 2," directed by Hong Kong auteur Johnnie To Concludes with an exclusive interview with "The Sopranos'" creator, David Chase. -- Amazon.com. 4aPelículas cinematograficas de delincuentes 946565 4aCine xTemas, motivos 911733 4aMafia en el cine946567 4aPelículas de gangsters xHistoria y crítica 946568zChina  2lcccBK isba c124366d124366 00102lcc40708HUaBJBbBJBcHUd2025-07-22l0oPN 1995.9 N757d 2007p00000191654r2025-07-22 19:25:00t1w2025-07-22yBK
