Ways of Reading Asian Cultures
2005
Introduction . Both `Bollywood ' and Hong Kong cinema can be considered
the phenomena of Eastern cinema culture . Obviously , the similarities and
differences between them respond to the historical development of the
countries . All the historical conditions that made their contribution
into two cinema traditions formation are not the issue of this essay . It
is helpful , however , to mention what defined the ways of cinema
development in India and Hong Kong . That is why the first paragraphs of
my essay tell short history to help to understand the specialties of
Bollywood phenomenon and cultural translation of Hong Kong cinema . These
paragraphs describe also the genres and special movie features for both
traditions , finding out their similarities and differences .
The second part of the essay is analyzing the international popularity
of Indian and Hong Kong movies based on their special features and
historical development . Discovered similarities and differences of
Indian and Hong Kong cinema tradition and international popularity are
summarized in the conclusion .
Bollywood cinema tradition . Both India and Hong Kong are postcolonial
British societies . India proclaimed its independence in 1940th , thus
Indian culture saved its national unique . It was reflected in Popular
Hindi Cinema , which has become the rich mix of tradition , myth ,

``commerce with art '4 . It should be specified here , that Bollywood is
Hindi Popular Cinema , the name given by Indian English Press to refer

the nearest future either wherewithal , or , actually , the reason to
compete with American cinema Olympus . In case if foreign investment in
Bombay film industry should have place , it would bring also the
investor 's movie making traditions and thus would harm the unique Indian
national movie . When it comes about the reason to compete , it should be
said , that eastern and western movie traditions are so different that
the yawing chasm between them for Indian cinema will stay for many years
even despite of the recent interaction tendencies . Bombay movie Industry
was considered Indian Hollywood , probably , because of its dominance in
the national industry and the output of films in the most wildly
understood language - Hindi-Urdu (Ninian , A 2003 .
There was a 50-year Indian Popular cinema genre tradition . Two genres
dominated in Bollywood production : love stories and gangster-action
films . The first appealed to the tests of middle and high class Indians (Ninian , A 2003 , and therefore have rich decorations , sentimental
plots , proclaim pure ideas and high moral , social , and national ideals (Mother India , 1957 . The main characters are either rich people ,
belonging to upper castes , or poor but very generous heroes . These
movies picture the portraits of an ideal woman (later they picture the
women 's movement , as in Insaaf ka Tarazu , 1980 ) and mother (Aradhana ,
1960 , and male heroes . Action films appeal to the tests of poorer
people belonging...
