China’s position in the world and self-image is reversed in a mere 100-year period (c.a. 1840-1940) from leading civilization to subjected and torn country.
Japan was not the first modern and mechanized power to menace the freedom of China.

This talk will introduce three movies made between 1959-1961 by MP&GI (Motion Picture & General Investment) Ltd., a subsidiary of Singapore’s Cathay Organization founded in 1956 by Loke Wan Tho. A competitor of the larger and now better known Shaw Brothers, MP&GI made most of its movies in Mandarin rather than Cantonese, and its films were popular with audiences throughout Southeast Asia as well as in Hong Kong and Taiwan. During its peak years of 1957 to 1964, MP&GI offered viewers a broad range of films, predominantly urban romances, musicals, comedies and social or family dramas, often focusing on the middle class.
