我们新辟《海外知音》一栏,以发表外国朋友对中国电影的研究性意见。本期,我们很高兴发表乔活·S·塞姆塞尔教授的文章,这将对我们的电影理论研究有所启发。当然,乔治教授的意见是针对他这两年所能看到的中国影片而言的。对于这些意见,我们也是本着“百家争鸣”的精神,作为一家之言来看待的。 We have created a new column, “Overseas Friendship,” to publish foreign researchers’ opinions on Chinese films. In this issue, we are happy to publish an essay by Professor Joe Livingsemsel, which will inspire our study of the theory of cinema. Of course, Professor George’s opinion is in the light of the Chinese films that he has seen in these two years. With regard to these opinions, we also regard the spirit of “a hundred schools of thought” as a saying.
