*Patrick Gamble, CineVue*
'World Film Locations: Shanghai (2014) is a reader-friendly
introduction offering detailed maps and screenshots of significant
moments from the Chinese cinema of Shanghai. [...] Almost all the
writers appear to have spent time living or working in Shanghai;
many of them are photographers, directors, or film scholars who
have had experience in filmmaking or studying cinema at an advanced
level. In this way, the book seeks to ensure that the content has
been created by cinema insiders who are in a position to offer
their informed commentary. [...] Will have an appeal to film
aficionados.'

Context*
