Summary |
'Split Screen' offers an analysis of the career of Sin Sang-ok, arguably the most important Korean filmmaker of the postwar era. It also furnishes an examination of key aspects of modern Korea, from the politics of mass culture to the cultural effects of geopolitical division. The book pursues these dual aims through its eclectic methodology, combining close readings of a broad range of films with documentary research into the industrial and political conditions of film production and through engagement with a variety of theoretical literatures in both English and Korean |
