dc.description.abstractThis article focuses on the symbolic uses of the color red in Chinese cinema of the 1980s, and on how it represents cultural identities and social ideologies in the context of four perspectives on modernization: the rural-urban relationship; social surveillance vs. individualization; suppression by regulation vs. enlightenment of the human mind; and gender identities. The approach is both phenomenological and intertextual. The main examples are the films REN SHENG (RC 1984), HONG YI SHAO NU (RC 1985), and DA HONG DENG LONG GAO GAO GUA (RC 1991). My research aims at exploring the role of color in cinematic signifying practice, embedded in a specific social-historical context.en
